Grandfather Clock by William Grayson Henley
This impressive longcase clock was crafted by William Grayson of Henley-on-Thames, dating back to the late 18th or early 19th century (approximately 1780-1825). The clock features a mahogany case, a painted dial depicting a pastoral scene, and visible weights and pendulum. The clock’s face displays hours in Roman numerals and minutes in Arabic numerals, with delicate hands indicating the time.
