1810s Satinwood Month-going longcase clock, Macabe
A rare month-going Regency satinwood longcase clock of small proportions by James Macabe.
The caddy top satinwood case is painted to a very high standard, all is in exceptionally good condition. The trunk is well-painted with a profile portrait of George IV over his Prince of Wales Plume and a depiction of a classical scene with two veiled ladies at an altar. The base is painted with the Goddess of Love, and is raised on a shaped apron and splayed bracket feet.
The month-going timepiece movement has a larger than average brass-bound weight. It is pictured here prior to servicing, but will be overhauled and guaranteed for 3 years.
The original white painted 11-inch dial is delicately painted with a floral garland to the centre, and is signed <i> Macabe, London</i> at the top. It has matching spade hands.
Height including finial 82 inches (207 cms).
The previous owners of this antique clock were given to believe that this clock was given by George IV (when Prince of Wales) to one of his mistresses. Of course, this can only be speculation.
