19th century English drop dial wall clock with mother of pearl inlay and fusée movement.
A 19th century rosewood veneered English drop dial wall clock with decorative mother of pearl inlay around the bezel, the shaped ears and trunk, a fusée movement, a circular black and white dial, hand-painted Roman numerals and finely cut steel hands above a glazed panel housing a heavy brass bob pendulum.
The clock has a fusée regulator. Fusée movements, shown in sketches by Leonardo da Vinci, have been used to improve timekeeping since the 15th century. Early fusée clocks are highly desirable and collectable.
