An Impressive Burr Elm Biedermeier Viennese Regulator Wall Clock, Dating Circa 1855.

Case

The outstanding case with a shaped moulded top surmounted with the delicately carved original pediment, beneath an applied gilded royal crest for the house of Habsburg, presumably indicating the clock was originally from a royal property.

The shaped and glazed door flanked with excellent quality applied matching carvings and the finest quality burled veneers, glazed sides with boxwood stringing around the apertures. The case interior veneered with the beautifully figured burled elm wood with a silvered beat scale. The moulded and shaped base terminating with the original delicately carved base decoration. The original lock to the door.

Dial

The 8” diameter two piece enamelled dial with Roman numerals, surrounded by an inner and outer polished brass bezel.

Movement

The outstanding quality, triple plated 30 day duration, Grande Sonnerie three train movement of the highest quality striking on two blued steel curled gongs, with maintaining power and deadbeat escapement. Strike silent facility.

Weights and pendulum

Three large polished brass cased weights, with ornate spoked pulleys, polished brass bob pendulum (front and back) with ebonised wooden rod, incorporating decorative faux mercury compensated glass tubes and ornate gilded and engraved shaped mounts – very unusual.

Hands

Blued steel hands.
