Antique American Clocks
Gustav Becker two-weight Vienna Regulator, 1900-1902.
This clock, or at least the movement,
was manufactured at the Braunau factory, as indicated by the logo, and, based on the serial number (297401), between 1900-1902.
The light hardwood case is 44 inches long (note that the bottom finial is missing), with ornate carvings on the side columns and burl
accents, including a burl inset in the base.
Note also the burl accent panel on the back wall.
The door glass is not old,
the side glasses are.
There is a two-part porcelain dial with fancy hands, as you would expect.
The time-and-strike signed
movement is running and striking on the hours and half-hours, driven by two embossed weights and regulated by a large brass pendulum
