C.1900, German, Junghans, "Onion Boy" Swing clock in good original condition.

Whoever owned this wound it regularly and has worn part of the bronze finish away from the spelter (note highlights at the edges of the boys wrap). It retains its' original arm, this with some wear near the suspension hole, as it has been on and off the statue 1000 times. These minor items, aside, this is a nice example of this hard to find model. Porcelain dial is unsigned, as is the case on many of the early swingers. Height 15 1/2"
