or even 'hood' clock in America. The Dutch are very proud of their heritage, and as the originals of these got scarce in the 1990s they began to produce them again, in the original size with full length meter pendulum, the movements copies in every respect of the originals. This particular clock even has a rolling moon and a weight alarm that works. This is a 30 hour clock like the originals. The bottom "tail" comes off for pendulum adjustment and is held on by 2 tabs. These sell in Holland for around $600 today, and I would imagine it should be around the same here. Note one angel's wing is missing. Height 58 inches
