German one weight Vienna Regulator, Altdeutsch style, ca 1880. A very attractive walnut case, near 37 inches tall, clean and polished. Carved and turned top, base, and some carved sections on the columns. Unusual finials, removable top, three good glasses, and from top to bottom just a great looking clock. Thankfully everyone does not want a striking clock for this one is one weight, time only and running. Many of our customers request clocks that do not strike. Either it keeps the wife or kids awake nights, or the mother-in-law cannot stand the racket. Hmmm. The movement is 8-day, running slowly and steadily. Porcelain beat scale, old winding crank, brass weight and pulley, brass bob and wood stick, all appear to be original. Two-piece porcelain dial and a great pair of Vienna hands. I wish I had room upstairs for some of these nice Vienna’s. $200-$350.
