English Miniature Tall Case Clock by H. Ransom of Liverpool

This charming and finely crafted miniature tall case clock, standing just 17.5 inches in height, captures the essence of 19th-century English clockmaking on a compact scale.

The case is fashioned from pollard oak, richly grained and enhanced by a domed arch crown, flanked by four fluted columns with brass capitals. Decorative fretwork panels adorn the dial surround and lower case, providing an elegant balance of wood and gilt ornamentation. Its hand-painted porcelain dial features delicate Arabic numerals and intricate gilt center detail, complemented by elegant blued steel hands. The clock houses an 8-day timepiece movement, signed by H. Ransom of Liverpool, ensuring both reliable function and fine horological pedigree.

With its compact stature, refined decoration, and charm, this timepiece offers a rare opportunity to own a miniature example of English craftsmanship from the late Victorian era.
