The clock is in perfect working order having recently been professionally cleaned and serviced. This clock is absolutely perfect for anyone looking for a clock to place straight into their home.

If we start with the hood, this has swan necks with superb brass pateras which are nicely detailed. Below this is a lovely painted panel. Pretty square reeded columns which again have been nicely inlaid, flank the hood door. To the rear are plain back splats. The door is mahogany veneered and inlaid with fine stringing and has a pretty brass knob.

Going down to the trunk, the triple peak door has some wonderful grain to the mahogany and is finish with pretty moulding to the edge and petite acorn half turning's to the peaks. Above the door is beautifully inlaid with herringbone inlay. The door is flanked by reeded bookend columns which again have lovely diamond, dog tooth and stringing inlays incorporated into them.The door is also complete with it's lock and key which is fully working.

Finally the base has canted corners with frame of inlay with wonderful flame half matched mahogany veneers to the centre and mahogany cross banding to the outside of the inlay. It is raised on lovely ogee bracket feet.

The dial with makers name of 'Butler, Bolton', has the four corners adorned with beautifully painted flowers and to the centre are two lovely exotic birds. The dial is set out with Roman Numerals. There is subsidiary second dial. The Halifax moon is wonderful with the moons and also lovely painting of a galleon and a cottage scene. The dial also has the most wonderful fretted fingers.

The movement is eight day duration and is rack striking on a single bell. The movement is in perfect working order having recently been professionally cleaned and serviced.

There are three 'Butler, Bolton' listed in 'Greater Manchester Clocks & Clockmakers by EDMUND Davies' namely James, Jacob and Mrs Butler who were Father, Son and Wife. Although the book contains extensive details, in summary:
