My other ( 19th Century ) British Clock. Made by: BRITISH UNITED CLOCK COMPANY. In the shape of a Horse shoe with a Trumpet. The Company was around for only 24 years but made Quality clocks. As for date I think it from around late 1896's ( +/- ). Had posted just the face and some other clocks in old first week post. Decided I would expand on it. (( SEE my other one in Canon Shape same maker )). These are dark horses as collectors do not know that much about them as they were only around for 24 years. They closed business in 1909. So very Early Desk Top clocks.
Here is some additional info and/or Link:
