Fantastic Scottish mahogany longcase clock, crafted by Ninian Davidson of Dunse, is in excellent antique condition. The eight-day movement is housed in a stunning hood featuring a swan neck pediment with a central brass finial topped by an eagle. Reeded columns with brass capitals flank an arched glass door, adding to its elegance. The brass face boasts a silver-coloured 12'' dial adorned with decorative brass spandrels. The maker's name and place of work are engraved on a silvered brass roundel in the arch, framed by typical period spandrels. The longcase trunk features a long door with a decorative arched top and string inlay decoration, flanked by reeded columns. As with all antiques, there are minor imperfections, but this clock's striking appearance, warm colouring, and amazing patina make it a standout piece. This is an outstanding antique clock and a true statement piece.

Ninian Davidson was a clockmaker based in Dunse (now Duns), Scotland, during the early 19th century.
