Catalog Description:

C.1885, German, Gustav Becker, 8-Day spring regulator. The carving on this oak case is exceptional, with overlapping "shingles", full length on both sides. The shortcoming on this clock is the walnut top, which is old, but from another clock, as this clock is all oak veneer. Note also the door mask extends down into the dial about inch. It appears to have always been that wayaeand you might correct it when you work on an oak top. The movement has been oiled only for all its life and is dark brown, and amazingly runs and strikes through it all; movement and porcelain dial with Becker trademark. Overall very good condition, except as noted; Height 41 inches Reserve $300
