Dear All,
I am posting here pictures of my latest Mahogany bracket clock, prior to restoration. I date it to c1760-1780, made in Canton. I hope you will agree that it is a magical piece. Obviously, it has some things to do on it, besides an overhaul of the movement such as: new top handle, side glass, finials, replacing silk, but nothing too major. I especially like the sides and the painted dial backing depicting Europeans in an Oriental landscape. Lovely engraved back too. Will post pics of the very dirty movement later. Enjoy.
