Antique oak 18th century Bristol eight day clock.
The clock come in for restoration, the case needed to be completely taken apart and rebuilt. The case was very dry causing wood to shrink and crack in places. The base was taken apart and reglued . The plinth was a later addition and was made from pine, this was replaced for a more period style one during restoration.
The hood had some old repairs which were badly done and dried out. Theses were needed to be taken apart to remove the screws and nails before being reglued and repaired correctly. Once all repairs were carried out the case was cleaned and French polished afterwards. Once all polishing was done and waxed, the case had its brassware fitted back to the case. With new brass mounts for the swan necks to replace the damage and missing ones . The case was returned back to my client to have the paint3d dial fitted back in the case .

Longcase clock with calendrical, lunar, and tidal indications (The Graves Tompion) Maker: Thomas Tompion (British, 1639–1713) Case attributed to Jasper Braem (active ca. 1677–ca. 1686)
Date: ca. 1677–80 London
Medium: Case: oak veneered with walnut, panels of oyster-cut olive wood; marquetry panels of green-stained bone, ivory, and various woods; gilded-brass mounts; Dial: gilded and silvered brass; Movement: brass and steel
The dial indicates hours and minutes subdivided into ten-second intervals (on the silvered chapter ring), calendrical information (in various apertures), and the phases, aspects, and age of the moon in its monthly cycle, as well as the times of high tide at London Bridge (on the central revolving disk). The eight-day weight-driven movement, with anchor escapement and long pendulum, strikes in an unusually complicated way: full and half hours are struck respectively on large and small vertically mounted bells, and the first and third quarters, once and twice respectively, as double blows on small, horizontally mounted bells.
"Even a broken clock is right 2 times a day."
