Dear Stephan, this is Oleg Sinegubkin writing. This clock was made in St.Petesburg in the workshop of John Forman in the early 1820-s. Most ptobably John and his son William, who were clockmakers and, mostly, clock dealers had some kind of agreement to make such clocks with Wibral, but there are no proof about that. They continued to make such clocks during late 1820-s and into 1830-s, when William Forman began to use his name on the dial. It was also found that finish and swedish journeymen, like C.F.Blomquist, probably were involved in making such clocks during their work for Formans in St.Petersburg. Another interesting fact is that some clocks are signed Wibral and some Wiebral. Anyway, thank you for you excellent videos and story! Best regards, Oleg

Dear Oleg, thank you for the information. We knew part of this already but did not know the names and as you say, there is no proof of this. It would be great to verify it in some way as it sounds like a very interesting story. It would proof that there was a network of craftsman all over Europe exchanging knowledge and cooperating. Using Wibral's name must have also been a sign of quality, I think, or they wouldn't have used it.
