Description
An elegant early 20th century Art Deco longcase clock, offered as a complete project for restoration.
Description:
The case is of tall, slim, and rounded architectural form with carved Art Deco detailing, veneered in dark-stained oak or similar hardwood.
The clock retains its original chrome-plated Arabic numeral dial, which is heavily oxidised and discoloured, consistent with age and long storage.
The movement is an 8-day triple-weight chiming movement with visible strike mechanisms.
It appears complete but untested.
Comes with:
Original brass movement
Three chrome cylindrical weights
Pendulum rod and bob
Chrome Arabic numeral dial
Original winding key
Internal paper instructions label still present to inner case.
Condition:
Being sold as found for restoration or parts.
The case is structurally sound and retains its glass, though general surface wear and age marks are present.
The dial is tarnished and shows patches of corrosion.
The movement is untested and may require a full service.
Chrome on weights and pendulum bob is generally bright with some signs of ageing.
Dimensions:
Height approx. 183 cm (72 in)
Width approx. 33 cm
Depth approx. 24 cm
This is a stylish interwar-period longcase clock with potential as a rewarding restoration project.
No maker’s mark visible, but likely of English or possibly German origin, C. 1930s–40s.
