C.1885, German, Winterhalder and Hofmeier, 3-Fusee bracket clock, in
the style of Louis XVI, and in excellent original condition. The buyer of this clock in April moved to Thailand and was unable to pick up the clock prior to moving. This is really an exceptional clock that has been well cared for its whole life. The floral marquetry case retains its original finish, and all of its brass railings and finials are intact. The large and robust 3-fusee movement is the equal of its British counterpart in every way, and chimes Westminster quarters on 4 heavy flat wire gongs and strikes the hours on a 5th deep toned gong (gong assembly removed for shipment). Although the clock is running and chiming it would benefit from service; the front door lock is original and with key, however someone has "adjusted it" until you must open it from the rear. Large and impressive; Height 25 inches
