Beautiful Very Rare & Collectable Striking Top Barometer Mantel Carriage Clock
Would make a lovely gift.
This clock really is extremely rare and in stunning condition with a mirror like shine/polish to it.
My favourite part of the clock along with the front vertical escapement and recessed engraved center is the top barometer window. The aneroid barometer is clear, looks great and seems to work well.
The clock is ticking and striking, it has a wonderful regal sounding gong resonation as can be seen/heard in the short video. The clock has been set up by a professional master horologist.
Usually these striking mantel clocks have compass/thermometers inset on top that sell for around £2499 in clock shops if you can find them. These barometer clocks are a lot rarer and more collectable would sell for a lot more. This is the only example I have had or seen of this style.
Approx 19cm high (not including handle)
Comes with a key.
Please
do remember given the sensitive nature of the movements that after
transit they may need adjusting and/or setting up. I recommend for these clocks to be picked up in person.
Any
viewing is welcome and recommended.
Bank transfer or cash if being picked up in person.
Please
look at my other rare antique carriage clocks and exotic wood items.
Thank
You
