French 19th Century Gilded Bronze and Black Wood Lyre Mystery Swinger Clock with a Striking Movement, in Fully Working Condition

An uncommon mystery swinger clock. The pendulum sits above the movement and seems to swing without any impulse. This mystery is fairly simple - pendulum crutch extends upwards, engaging the pendulum's rod that sticks out of the bob. Still a very neat clock, in excellent condition, especially considering its age. Bronze casting is fine and ornate. The movement is fully functional and fairly clean. It is missing a small decoration medallion on top left, minute hand has a small repair, otherwise the clock is superb. As with any pendulum based clock, it will need to be properly balanced after shipping (or any moving for that matter). The crutch is pressure fitted onto the verge's rod and can be adjusted. If you are not experienced in this, you will need to invite someone to help you balance it at your house. I can also advise in emails. I will include a key. Pictures speak for themselves but do let me know if you have any additional questions. The clock measures approximately 20.5" high. I will consider international shipping on individual case basis.

I am listing a similar type clock in blue porcelain as well and I have multiple specimens remaining in my collection.

I am not doing any business, buying or selling, with anyone residing in Russia until Russia withdraws from Ukraine, no exceptions.

This clock, like any other pendulum based clock, has to be put in-beat when setting it up after shipping, otherwise it may not run. There are many videos online showing how to do this and I am happy to help with advice as well.

I am not a clock dealer - I am a clock collector and a member of NAWCC. I currently have more than 200 clocks and I keep buying more, so I have to sell some. I would be selling many more if I had the time to list them...

Please note that I will not ship to an address that is different from the one listed by eBay or PayPal unless the winning bidder can really prove to me that the address is legitimate.

My prefered shipping for this is FedEx Home Delivery - UPS has been very bad at handling packages lately. Please note that FedEx shipments require destination's phone number, if eBay does not have yours and you are concerned about releasing it to me, we can find an alternate method of shipping.
