Catalog Description:

C.1890, German, for the English market, Fumed Gothic Oak bracket clock, complete. This clock was marketed by "Frisch and Schierwater, Liverpool", engraved into silvered dial. The case is exceptionally nice with only some minor losses on the corners of the base moldings. The silvered dial is very clean. The hands are original. Although unsigned, the robust and well made movement looks identical to those produced by Winterhalder and Hofmeier. This is a quarter striking movement with 2 gongs. The original carved oak bracket with matching Gothic designs. This clock is a good example of how far the Germans would go to accommodate local taste. A very impressive clock. Height 35" $2,000-$3,000
