English Lichfield Cathedral Skeleton Clock by Evans of Handsworth
The famed Lichfield Cathedral comes to life in this extraordinary skeleton clock. Known for its iconic three spire top and exemplary gothic architecture, this skeleton clock takes on dramatic shape. The eight-day movement strikes the half hour on a bell and hour on a tuned gong. The elaborate pieced and engraved silver dial displays the time on prominent Roman numerals. The impressive clock resides inside a custom-made, glazed mahogany case with carved scroll and leaf detail adorning the base.
Evans of Handsworth held a place as one of the most renowned makers of English skeleton clocks in the late 19th century. Known to produce some of the most complex and extravagant timepieces, Evans clocks have become some of the most highly desirable skeleton clocks on the market today.
A fully restored movement powers this timepiece. The clock comes with a one year warranty.
