Clocks workshop

20 May 2025

Among the pieces featured in the event will be an elaborate painted clockfaces by Leeds artisans J C Elliott and G Winter, who both had local workshops in the late 19th Century, when many such small, family-run workshops would have been located in big cities like Leeds. An intricate early 20th Century Swiss-made wooden cuckoo clock and some classic examples of 19th and 20th Century carriage clocks are also included. They will be shown alongside a more modern, 1970s Minitman digital bedside alarm clock.
