This is a really handsome and striking maritime wheel clock modeled after a traditional ship's telegraph, marked Chadburns Liverpool & London. Chadburns was the most famous, widely used, and trusted maker of ship telegraphs from the 19th century through much of the 20th century and their instruments came to symbolize Britain’s naval and commercial innovation.
This is a heavy, solid, high-quality piece with beautiful craftsmanship including a thick crystal glass covering the clock, visible wood dowels and two brass cleats that unscrew to allow access to the clock mechanism.
Tested and works, takes one AA battery. There are two holes to use for hanging with a wire (not included) if so desired. Perfect for a coastal interior, study, library, or collector’s display, this piece brings genuine maritime character and history to a space.
