We have a large number of vintage and antique clocks currently listed along with an equally large number of music boxes and other very nice collectibles. Be sure to have a look at our other items ! This is an excellent find of a breathtaking, old, working, chiming, key wind, wood wall clock that was produced about 45 years ago but shows very little signs of having been used. The case is made entirely of wood, oak I believe, and is probably one of the nicest parlor clocks I've ever seen. T are pillars on either side of the case and a fancy carved wood decoration on the bottom complete with three wooden finials. The top is quite ornate too and features a wagon wheel motif, two large finials, and a carved wooden horse on the very top. T is a hinged wooden door in the very front and a glass crystal is inset into it; no cracks or chips that I can see. The glass has a goldtone pinstripe design to it; very nice! The door opens easily to allow access to the two winding arbors located on the dial and for setting the time; great spot for key storage too! The metal dial is features large, easy to read, black Roman numerals marking the hours. The hands are matching and very fancy too. The brasstone metal lyre pendulum is quite long and has an "RA" pendulum bob on the end. The clock is fitted with a key wind, mechanical movement that lasts for about four weeks on a single wind. At the bottom of each hour, the clock strikes a single melodic chord on a coiled cathedral chime inside the case and correctly chimes the current number of hours at the top of the hour, just like Big Ben in London! The clock works just fine , keeps good time, and chimes as it should though being an old clock, some adjustments or service may be necessary once the clock arrives at its new home. We always advise our clock customers to service their antique or vintage clocks at least once every three years. Doing so will give them a longer life and keep them running strong. The clock comes complete as shown with a fancy brasstone metal pendulum and the winding key. I've looked the clock over fairly well and can't find any damage or repairs. The case does have a nick and t but nothing detracting...I doubt if anything could. It's in very nice shape! The clock is very impressive and equally so in size. It's one of the largest parlor clocks I've seen measuring about 36" high, about 6 1/2" deep, and about 14 1/4" at its widest point across the top. This clock will certainly turn a few heads in your home, office, or wver it is that you care to showcase a wonderful rare chiming clock. ; I have no doubt that you will love this clock!
