Stately Swedish Gustavian longcase clock made circa 1800. This clock has been dry scraped back to its original paint and stunning patina. It has a beautiful carved headdress of an intertwined ribbon on top. Another unusual detail of this clock is the lock and key on the door, which is in full working condition. This clock has its original face and belly glass from the early 1800's. Comes complete with its original weights, pendulum and clockworks.

These beautiful items are antique and therefore show signs of wear and rich patinas consistent with their age and history and are sold “as is.” The clock mechanisms are generally basic and rustic in nature. They do not resemble the refined mechanisms of clockmakers today. As such, they cannot be described as reliable timepieces and are often bought for their style, appearance, and character. While our clock mechanisms have all been cleaned and serviced by a master clocksmith, they are sold on the understanding they are not made to the same standards of modern-day clock movements and may require balancing to even the pendulum swing once in your home and servicing/cleaning to ensure its continued working.
