English: Longcase clock (a.k.a Grandfather's clock). 8 Days clock with weight device. Clock dates back to 1700 CE and the case late 19th - early 20th century CE.
The original dial of this clock has been replaced by a brass dial with Tamil numerals perhaps during the late 19th or early 20th century CE. The original long-case was also replaced by a mandapa shaped wooden carved case done in South Indian style. The front and the side panels are done in metal repousse work with floral meanders. The lower part of the case depicts mythological scenes and the case was manufactured at the Madras School of Arts.
