Extraordinary German / Serpentine 3 weight wall clock with Grand Sonnerie at 1860
More photos under the description
Origin:
Germany
Maker:
Unknow
Date:
at 1860
Measures approx.:
High: 55.12 inches 140 cm
Width: 18.5 inches 47 cm
Deep: 6.68 inches 17 cm
Condition:
The case is in very good condition
in line with the age.
Apart from a few usual traces
of use and age there is nothing
marring the beauty of this clock.
On a clock which is older
than 150 years, these flaws
are truly minor
and neither lowers the value nor interferes with its charisma.
Dial / Movement:
The dial is made of enamel. It has some fine hairline cracks.
Both the clockwork as well
the striking mechanism are fully functional.
This clock has Grand Sonnerie striking.
First it chimes the quarter, then repeats the hour every quarter.
For example, at 7:30, it chimes twice on the 1/2 hour then 7 times for the hour. At 8:00, it strikes 4 times on one chime rod then eight times on the other, for the hour.
This feature is also known as blind man’s clock.
The movement is recently cleaned and oiled.
Incl. key
All clocks we sell are in running condition at our home.
However, some antique clocks need adjustment,
they need to be leveled and occasionally other adjustments after shipping.
Therefore, we cannot guarantee that the clock is directly in running condition when it arrives with you
and if you are not experienced with old clocks maybe you need a professional clockmaker for setup the clock.
Packing and shipping
I guarantee you the best possible packing.
All clocks will be wrapped in several layers of bubble wrapand surrounded by a thick layer of packing chips. Possibly arising expenses for customs tax must be paid from the buyer. Payment: I accept only following payments: Paypal Transfer to my bank account in Germany
Most clocks offered by us are around 100 years old, many even older.
These clocks have survived wars, moves etc. and were then often stored in attics
or forgotten in basements. This can, quite naturally, lead to the clocks showing normal traces of wear and tear, wormholes, small color differences in the wood
or even damages in the veneer.
The clockworks were cleaned and I cleaned the cases myself.
If you wish to buy a clock which looks new and unused, please do not buy an antique clock with us.
As mentioned before, we do not remove traces related to age since for us they are
an integral part of an antique clock.
We also cannot answer questions about whether all parts of a particular clock
are still original.
It is always possible that something was exchanged or supplemented years or even decades ago.
Thank you for your understanding.
Thanks
&
Happy Bidding
