Dating back to the late 19th century, this magnificent 8-day walnut cased Vienna regulator wall clock from around 1870 is a true marvel. Adorned with a broad arched pediment and a heavily carved grotesque at the centre, this timepiece exudes intricate craftsmanship.
Below the pediment, a carved frieze complements the reeded columns on the front of the fully glazed door, adding a touch of elegance to its design. The clock features a two-part enamel dial with Roman numerals and pierced steel hands, enhancing its classic aesthetic.
The ebonised pendulum rod boasts a brass-faced bob and beat plate, while the base is adorned with a carved ogee plinth and pendants, adding to its overall charm. This clock comes complete with three matching brass cased weights and pulleys, enhancing its functionality.
This Vienna regulator wall clock houses a grand sonnerie three-train striking movement with a deadbeat escapement, striking the quarters and hours on two coiled gongs. Additionally, it features repeat work, adding to its appeal and functionality.
