English Travel Clock by Dent, circa 1840

A travel clock signed "Dent à London." This clock was commissioned by Dent and made in Vienna by Sollner. Due to high demand, Dent outsourced clock production to skilled clockmakers across Europe, selling them under his name after approval. The clock includes movement, striking mechanism, and alarm functionality. It is housed in its original wooden travel case with brass fittings—a style known as campaign furniture. The oak case features brass corners, an inlaid handle, and a lock. A repetition button on top allows the striking mechanism to be silenced. At the bottom, settings for grande sonnerie, petite sonnerie, or silent mode are available. The brass case has faceted glass panels, and the clock can be wound via a rear door. The enamel dial has a numeral ring at the top and an alarm setting at the bottom. Dimensions: height: 18 cm, width: 9cm and depth: 8 cm
