As with many skeleton clocks, he used an existing antique fusee movement as the heart of the clock and carefully fretted the brass frames and dial to give the impression of their 19th century counterparts. The front dial is nicely engraved: BOLTON, LONDON. The round dome with turne base is recent. And covered with a piece of dark blue velour; dome setting beside clock in foto. Height of clock 13", Height with dome 14.5 inches
