23 October 2024
The cathedral case is bronze with gold fire-gilding and silvering. One can see the exquisite detail throughout the complete structure. The pendulum swings to and fro in the cathedral door. The movement is signed: "F.L. Hausburg Paris" and the same on the dial behind the fretted cathedral window at the top. It is also silk-thread suspension with eight day running duration. The clock strikes the half and full hours on a gong, which is housed in the base of the clock. The base is a very fine piece of workmanship in itself, being rosewood with the finest of stringing and style. Height: 21.75 inches (55cm) Width: 11 inches (28cm)
