Diamantini & Domeniconi Longcase Grandfather Clock Picture(s) and Description:

DIAMANTINI & DOMENICONI LONG CASE/ GRANDFATHER CLOCKGREAT CONDITIONREALLY STUNNING AND STYLISHLY DESIGNED CASEBEAUTIFUL CRAFTSMANSHIP ON THE CLOCK RE LISTED AFTER A VALUATION FROM BBC ANTIQUES ROADSHOW HI YOU ARE VIEWING AN AUCTION FOR THIS LOVELY DIAMANTINI AND DOMENICONI LONG CASE CLOCK.

I AM RE LISTING AFTER RECEIVING A VALUATION FROM ANTIQUES ROADSHOW IN GREENWICH ON THURSDAY 30 SEPTEMBER. ALTHOUGH NOT AN ANTIQUE YET THE EXPERT SAID IT WOULD BE ONE DAY AND AT PRESENT IS WORTH BETWEEN 2 4 THOUSAND POUNDS.I AM LISTING AS WE DON'T HAVE THE SPACE FOR IT AND COULD DO WITH THE CASH WE APPRECIATE IT MAY NOT HIT THE VALUATION AS TIMES ARE TOUGH SO HAVE NOT SET A RESERVE,

THE CLOCK IS ABOUT 25 YEARS OLD AND D&D NO LONGER MAKE CLOCKS OF SUCH SCALE AND CRAFTSMANSHIP

AS THE CLOCKS HISTORY IS VITAL I THOUGHT I WOULD ADD THIS INFO. THE CLOCK WAS OWNED BY A WEALTHY FAMILY FROM THE HAMPSTEAD GARDEN SUBURBS AND THEY MAY HAVE COMMISSIONED THIS CLOCK TO BE SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED AND MADE FOR THEIR HOUSE AT THE TIME. AS IT DIDN'T FIT THEIR REFURB A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO THEY GAVE IT TO MY FATHER (WHO WORKED FOR THEM). AS I SAY THEY MAY HAVE HAD IT COMMISSIONED SO IT COULD BE A ONE OF A KIND, HOWEVER THIS IS NOT 100% KNOWN, I'M SURE A PROFESSIONAL WOULD KNOW IF THIS CLOCK WAS MASS PRODUCED. IF THEY DO PLEASE LET ME KNOW, BUT FROM LOOKING AT IT I DOUBT IT, MY RESEARCH HAS LED ME NOWHERE IN TERMS OF WHETHER IT WAS MASS PRODUCED OR NOT.

IT HAS BEEN WITH MY FAMILY FOR SOME TIME NOW BUT WE HAVE DECIDED IT IS TIME TO SELL AS WE NEED THE SPACE.

THE CLOCK HAS BEEN WELL LOOKED AFTER AND THE CLOCK WORKS. THE CHIMES WORK BUT WE ARE UNSURE ON HOW TO SET THEM TO CHIME AT A CERTAIN TIME.I AM UNSURE WHAT CHIME PHASE IT HAS.A PROFESSIONAL WOULD HAVE IT SET UP IN NO TIME I'M SURE

THE FRONT GOLD PLATE RUNNING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE DOOR IS A LITTLE LOOSE, PREVIOUS OWNERS HAVE GLUED IT, WE HAVE KEPT IT THE SAME. IT LOOKS FINE FROM THE FRONT.

ITS WORTH MENTIONING THERE IS VERY SLIGHT CHIPPING OR PEELING OF PAINT WORK DOWN THE RIGHT FRONT DOOR PILLAR. IT IS VERY MINOR AND COULD BE LEFT AS IS OR TOUCHED UP BY A PRO, IT IS HARDLY NOTICEABLE AT A GLANCE OR FROM A FEW METRES AWAY, UP CLOSE IT IS MORE NOTICEABLE

SOME SLIGHT SCRATCHING ON GLASS FRONT PANEL OF CLOCK FACE, NOT NOTICEABLE APART FROM UP CLOSE

THE MAGNET ON THE FRONT GLASS DOOR TO KEEP IT FULLY CLOSED IS MISSING, AS IT DOES NOT STICK IT STAYS AJAR BY ABOUT 1 INCH BUT STILL LOOKS CLOSED. THIS SHOULD BE AN EASY FIX, AS I HAVE SAID I DO NOT WANT TO DAMAGE IT OR MAKE ANY ALTERATIONS.

THE WOOD IS A LOVELY MID COLOURED/ REDDISH BROWN SO FITS WELL WITH MODERN FURNITURE

IT HAS A CURVED GLASS CASE AROUND THE SIDE AND FLAT GLASS DOOR ON THE FRONT.

THE BACK IS WOOD COVERED BUT HAS A SMALL HATCH THAT OPENS SO YOU CAN GET TO THE BACK OF THE CLOCK

YOU CAN SEE INTO THE CLOCK MOTORS FROM THE SIDE WHICH IS A MASSIVE SELLING POINT!
