These two tall clocks are fine examples of his work. The clock on the left is made from tiger maple and the clock on the right is made from mahogany, with an exquisite crotch mahogany door. The left hand clock is from Bucks County and the right clock is from Philadelphia, about 1770. Both are Chippendale clocks and both have the rocking ship motif, and both have beautifully carved wood finials.

Would Jim consider building feet for my David Weatherly tall clock 1810 . The feet were cut off by a previous owner and make it now look badly. Please let me know.
