C.1880, German, Lenzkirch "Tabernacle" Clock

in excellent original condition. This clock is made in the French style, several panels of cast brass screwed together, and the fine detail in the casting is amazing, a myriad of swags and shells with northwind faces as well, some minor oxidation in the crevices. The signed Lenzkirch movement has been pro-fessionally cleaned and runs and strikes the hours on a bell. The dial has 12 individual porcelain numerals, in royal blue on white (the 3 and 8 with hairlines), and with original hands. Clocks by this maker are really the "Mercedes" of clock collecting. Impressive. Height 17" $2500-3000
