Whytock and Sons, Dundee, a mid 19th century skeleton clock with passing strike, the frames fretted in the form of vines and foliage topped with a finely finished bell, the fusee movement with recoil escapement and inline wheelwork with five spoke crossings confined to the center of the frame and so allowing for a very open design, the silvered dial with gothic roman numerals also following the frame design, and incorporating thistle, vine and shamrock motifs, fancy blued steel hands and heavy brass clad pendulum, beneath an oval glass dome with conforming wooden base frames with minor tarnish and staining, dial with minor bends and tarnish, base and dome replaced, clock feet now with risers to accomodate the new enclosure, ticking
