C.1999 reproduction Laterndluhr wall case in the style of 1830. This is a good looking clock, some evidence of an impatient finisher who sanded through the veneer in a couple of spots. The doors are made of solid mahogany with satinwood banding, where the originals would have been veneer over pine throughout. The 4 wheel movement is of good quality and the engine turned bezel is old; the hands are modern laser cut copies of old hands (nice quality). Beat scale at bottom has some chips. An original like this would be valued at around $20,000, and our estimate is based on the sale of similar clocks in 1997. It certainly "looks" the part. Dial 7 inches, height 39 inches
