Antique American Clocks
Altdeutsch two-weight Vienna regulator, ca. 1870.
This is a beautiful 52-inch carved mahogany
case with old glass in the door.
Unfortunately, the crest piece does not quite match, as it appears to be walnut; it is also
missing the bottom center finial and some small trim pieces that go around the top at the door.
The two-piece porcelain dial
is very clean and has a seconds bit, uncommon in Viennas; with pierced hands.
The 8-day, two-weight movement is unsigned; it
is running, striking a wire gong on the hour and half-hour.
