Walnut veneer on oak and pine carcase
c.1715-30
By tradition, this clock was given to John Wesley by a member of his Society. It was made by the well-known French Huguenot clockmaker, Claude Duchesne, who had a workshop in Long Acre, in central London. It is one of his less elaborate clocks but is of excellent quality and has an early moon phase, as well as an eight day movement.
