C.1907, Gustav Becker, Art Nouveau 2-Wt wall clock
in excellent original condition. This clock was consigned by a collector from Holland, and it is in virtual "untouched condition". Movement needs cleaning and re-stringing; pendulum stick has an old repair, right at the very top that can be easily improved; bob retains original lacquer and with no dents nor scratches. Dial and beat scale are perfect; dial signed with G-B trademark. One weight is ever so slightly larger than the other, but not at all noticeable from a distance. The walnut case is 100 percent original, including finish and case stabilizers. For additional information on this era, see Clocks of the Art Nouveau and Art Deco Style published by Chapter 28 and covering the 1996 Chicago National exhibit. Serial number 2,168,117., +with original wooden handle crank. Height 49 " Reserve $1200
