Stunning & Rare 8-1/2\' Tall Jewellers Regulator Standing Clock:
$4900.00

Beautiful, and rarely seen, Jewelers Regulator Floor Standing Clock from the last quarter of the 19th century. Rich walnut case is accented with rosettes and burl panels, and stands a commanding 8 and one half feet tall with the original hood. This wonderful timepiece has also had a custom made hood for lower ceilings which matches the case beautifully. The clock has been photographed with the additional hood (my ceilings are only 8\'), but the original hood can be seen in photo # 9. Both hoods will be included with the clock. These clocks were used by Jewelers, clockmakers etc. as a \"master\" clock to regulate other timepieces to, after repair. As such, they had to be extremely accurate timekeepers. This clock is fitted with a large 3 jar mercury compensating pendulum to keep the timekeeping precise over fluctuations in ambient temperature. The middle jar is 7\" tall, while the side jars measure 6\" in height. In total, the jars hold close to 18 lbs of mercury! There is a crack in the middle jar, but it does not leak, and cannot be seen when the crack is positioned to the rear. The clock base measures 30\" wide, and the case is 14\" deep. Lovely porcelain dial with brass surround shows no chips or cracks, and is accented by the original pierced hands and center seconds hand. Dial measures 13\" across. The movement is a heavy brass plate pinwheel escapement, housed in an iron case with side doors, which sits atop two decorative brackets. Although the movement appears original, I believe the brackets have been changed out at some point, asI have noted other mounting holes in the case.The movement has just been professionally cleaned and serviced, and is running strong. This clock commands attention! I would be able to deliver the clock to the Vancouver, BC or Seattle WA area if desired. Otherwise I can work with the purchaser to arrange shipping.
