Description
Exclusively for Chelsea Clock, renowned furniture makers Thos. Moser crafted a distinctive base for our venerable Ship's Bell Collection. The base is hand carved from solid cherry and hand rubbed to a pristine finish. A custom engraved solid brass plaque marks its authenticity. This handcrafted timepiece signals the passing of time with gentle, rich sounding chimes eight bells at 4, 8 and 12 o'clock to mark the end of a mariner's four hour watch, with one bell the first half hour after, plus one additional bell with each subsequent half hour. Behind its hand silvered dial, 364 precision brass parts many plated with gold and 11 jewel movements. Since the first patented Ship's Bell left our factory in 1900, it has been held as the standard by which all other Chelsea clocks are measured. This clock has a forged brass nickle plated case. Dimensions: 7" H x 10 1/2" W x 4 1/2" D Weight: 8.2 lbs.
