A Charles Frodsham for The St James's House Company. A silvered brass, marble and mahogany revolving timepiece, with silvered metal galleon finial, silver plated bands to the base and brass ball feet, serial number 172/500, 27cm high

More Information

Galleon looks to be silvered or even thin silver but not hallmarked, front and rear sails slightly bent out of shape, and overall in need of a polish, marble plinth that it stands upon in good order as is the woodwork of the clock but again this would benefit from polishing, lacquered brass work with some oxidisation spots, silvered bands both a little oxidised and rubbed, movement going but not tested for timekeeping.
