Description:
A late Victorian mahogany framed wall clock, having a moulded frame, brass bezel and painted dial with Roman numerals and retailed by F. Allerding & Son 25 hunter Street Sydney, with brass twin train movement. Diameter 60 cm. Provenance: from the offices of the stockbroking firm Hordern, Utz & Bode. Other Notes: Stanley Frederick Utz (1898-1974) went into partnership with L. G. I. Bode, Son of his old schoolmaster. Utz & Bode began trading in 1927. After Sam Hordern joined the partnership in 1938, Hordern, Utz & Bode developed into one of Sydney's leading stockbroking firms. F. Allerding & Son were Jewellers and scientific instrument retailers who operated from 25 hunter Street in Sydney. Friederich Allerding (1815-1900) had been operating a shop in hunter street from as early as 1863 and around 1879 changed the name to incorporate his Son Henry into the business which he continued to operate after his father's death well into the 1900s.
