Charles Frodsham
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Charles Frodsham (1810-1871) was a renowned watch and clockmaker. He took over Arnold & Co in 1843 at 84 Strand, London. The family business Charles Frodsham and Co. still hold the Royal Warrant as clock suppliers to the British Royal Family.
A Frodsham clock was the official time piece of Australia when it was founded by the British in 1788. The clock is still on display at the Royal Observatory in Sydney.
