Abbey Nautical Quartz Wood and Brass Ship Wheel Wall Clock.

This lot comprises a nautical wall clock and a large ship's wheel frame. The wall clock features a circular wooden case with a reddish-brown polished finish and a brass-tone bezel. The white dial is marked with the name Abbey in black script and features black Roman numeral hour markers, black hands, and a gold-tone seconds hand. The clock is powered by a quartz movement which is currently housed in a separate plastic bag.

The accompanying ship's wheel is constructed from hardwood with a dark stain. The design includes eight turned wood spokes and handles, reinforced with a circular brass ring and a central brass hub cap. The clock is designed to be mounted within the central aperture of the wheel.

Diameter (wooden frame): approximately 42 cm.
Width (handle tip to handle tip): approximately 53 cm.

More Information

The clock and wheel are currently disassembled (photo 1). The wooden spokes and inner mounting rim of the wheel show visible scuffing and wear to the finish (photo 1 and 4). The brass components on both the wheel and the clock bezel exhibit surface oxidation and minor scratches (photo 3 and 4). The quartz movement is detached from the clock casing and its functionality is untested (photo 2).
