A super quality antique clock, the case feauturing some beautiful flame figured mahogany veneers, especially to the trunk door and base.

The 8-day five pillar rack and bell striking movement has a deadbeat escapement.
The 12-inch silvered brass Roman numeral dial has a large subsidiary seconds dial and calendar aperture to the centre and Arabic five minutes to outer track. At the twelve o'clock position is a N/S strike/silent lever. The dial is signed <i>Alexander Cumming, LONDON</i> to the arch.
Original matching pierced steel hands.

Alexander Cumming was born in Edinburgh 1733 and initially worked as a antique clock and watchmaker in Inveraray. By 1763 he had moved to London and had been appointed as a member of the commission to adjudicate Harrison's marine timekeeper.
