This is my latest purchase - I had to go a fair way above my budget to buy it, and I will need to sell quite a few clocks to cover the difference, but I think it will be worth it. The case needs a bit of restoration.
From research, the clock dates from around 1715, and it appears likely it was made for an export market - I purchased it at auction from France and it has more decoration than was usual for English domestic clocks.
Bracket clocks are not my usual thing (this is my third and by far my earliest) so any comments welcome!
