THIS BEAUTIFUL OLD COUNTRY ROSES PLATE WALL CLOCK IS WONDERFUL FOR SOMEONE WHO IS A COLLECTOR OF THE ROYAL ALBERT OLD COUNTRY ROSES, OR EVEN AS A GIFT TO SOMEONE WHO HAS A BIRTHDAY OR ANNIVERSARY AND IS A COLLECTOR OF CLOCKS ! THIS BELONGED TO MY LATE GRANNY.IT IS NOT A BREAKFAST OR DINNER PLATE THAT WAS MADE INTO A CLOCK AFTERWARDS. IT IS AN ORIGINAL WALL CLOCK AS MADE BY ROYAL ALBERT AS THE BACKSTAMP IS NOT IN THE MIDDLE, AS ON A PLATE BUT IT IS IN THE CENTRE AT THE TOP. THIS CLOCK WAS BOUGHT IN THE UK BY MY GRANDPARENTS MANY, MANY YEARS AGO.
IT IS IN A GOOD UNUSED CONDITION WITH NO CHIPS OR CRACKS.THE GOLD TRIM IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. I HAVE PUT AN AA BATTERY IN AND THE CLOCK DOES 'TICK' AND THE MINUTE HAND DOES MOVE AS TIME PASSES.I CHECKED IT OVER A HALF HOUR PERIOD. THIS CLOCK HAS NOT BEEN IN OPERATION, BUT KEPT IN A CUPBOARD FOR MANY YEARS WHEN MY GRANNY MOVED FROM HER FARM TO A RETIREMENT VILLAGE. I HAVE REMOVED THE BATTERY AS IT DOES 'TICK' AND THE HANDS DO MOVE AS MINUTES PASS. THERE IS HOWEVER NO GUARANTEE ON THIS CLOCK, DUE TO THE AGE OF THIS ITEM. I HAVE CHECKED AND IT DOES WORK AND HAVE NOW PACKED IT BACK IN A BOX. THE APPROXIMATE DIAMETER OF THIS CLOCK IS 26.5CM
