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
