An elegant Georgian London mahogany longcase clock by the celebrated maker Kenneth McLennan, circa 1795. This is a fine quality case of smaller, manageable proportions, with an arched pediment, decorative wavy edging and three brass ball finials, veneered throughout in choice flame mahogany. The hood has brass-capped fluted columns and side glass panels, above a raised moulded base panel. The superb brass and silvered dial carries blued steel hands, a strike/silent feature to the arch, seconds and date dials, and “Kenth McLennan London” engraved to the cartouche. Behind it is a high quality 8-day, five-pillar movement striking the hours on a bell, retaining its original brass-cased weights. Kenneth McLennan was a highly talented maker who built a planetarium for The Royal Institution in 1801, making this a clock of real horological interest.
