A very attractive small and rare carriage – timepiece dating 1909. The case is ‘tortoiseshell effect’ resin which has been cleverly shaped and decorated with 9ct gold handle, bezel, hinge and bun feet. The clock is wound through opening the rear door and using the small turn-key. The hallmarks indicate Asprey & Co of London. Asprey was originally founded in 1781 by William Asprey and has remained a fashionable store for unique gifts. This example with gold details is highly unusual and a very nice find! The case has tiny hair line at the top right rear corner which only shows under close inspection. The clock will run for a week on a wind and carries our 24month guarantee.

A very attractive small carriage – timepiece dating to 1911. The case is ‘tortoiseshell effect’ resin which has been cleverly shaped and decorated with a Silver handle and bun feet. The clock is wound through opening the rear door and using the small turn-key. These attractive little clocks always sell quite quickly as they are very hard to find without damage. This one is perfect. The hallmarks indicate a H.A & Co. At this time we are still trying to find which Silversmith this is (or was) !
