This novelty clock was made by the British United Clock Company in Birmingham around the early 1900s. Formerly the Anglo-American Clock Company, they were based in London and Birmingham. The company was formed in 1885 by Edward Davies, (formerly Super-Intendent of works for Ansonia in the USA). He set up a factory in Birmingham, England. The company subsequently closed in 1909.
Featuring mixed materials of a copper face, sterling silver side work and a blue enamel neck, it is an unusual and endearing little timepiece complete with stand that is sure to appeal to any music enthusiast.
