Grandfather Clock
(Reserved)
This clock is made from a mix of solid mahogany and mahogany finish and is in very good condition throughout with just a few imperfections here and there. The clock is around 30 yrs of age and has been manufactured by Thomas Byrne of Liverpool.
The clock has been finished in a shade of medium mahogany.
The clock has an Hermle Westminster chime movement installed. The movement is in excellent working but will be professionally serviced before sale. Please allow up to 14 days for this work to be carried out.
The clock can be silenced at any time by manually adjusting a lever that is located next to numeral 3. This lever is also used to select the Westminster chime.
The movement is powered by three brass heavy weights. The brass weight shells are in excellent condition as is the brass pendulum disc and brass dial.
Access to the movement is easily achieved by sliding the hood of the clock forwards and away from the main body of the clock case. This makes for easy access of the movement for tasks such as pendulum removal/replacement and any adjustments to the suspension. Or maybe just to see the clock chiming and striking away!
This clock looks and sounds superb and would enhance any size home.
Dimensions of the clock:
76.75"(H) x 16"(W) x 9.75"(D)
where, (H)=height of clock,
(W) & (D )=part of clock that means the floor
Price £395

This clock is made mainly from solid mahogany (has some veneers), and is in excellent condition.
The clock does have the odd age imperfection here and there, nothing worth noting!
The clock has been finished in a shade of dark mahogany.
The clock is around 30 yrs of age & has been made by Interclock of Belgium, a company noted for top quality floor clocks!
The clock as seen by the pictures has been very well cared for by the previous owners. Hopefully the pictures show the clock clearly.
The clock has a German Kieninger Westminster chime movement installed. The movement is 8 day and is weight driven on chains. The movement is in excellent working order but will be professionally serviced before sale. Please allow up to 10 - 14 working days for this work to be carried out.
The clock can be manually silenced at any time. This is easily achieved by adjusting a lever that is located next to numeral 3. This lever is also used to select the Westminster chime.
The movement also has the auto night silence feature which when selected cancels the chimes from late evening and restarts early morning. This feature can be disabled by adjusting a lever next to numeral 9.
The mechanism is powered by 3 brass heavy weights. The brass weight shells are in good used condition but do have a few imperfections here and there. Likewise the brass lyre pendulum.
The brass moon phase dial has a scratch on the silver numeral ring which I have tried to picture; I must add that when I purchased this clock I did not see this scratch! It was a few days later when I finally noticed it! You have to be in the right light to see this. The dial is in otherwise good condition! Everything in this clock is original. I am very honest!
Access to the movement is easily achieved by removing either of the two side panels in the hood of the clock. The side panels have lovely contrasting shades of mahogany, a great feature by Interclock. When the side panels are removed, tasks such as pendulum removal and replacement, and any adjustments to the suspension, can easily be achieved. It is also nice to see the movement chiming and striking away with the panels removed.
This is an excellent quality floor clock, very attractive and traditional in design.
The new owner will not be disappointed!
The dimensions of the clock are:
78.5"(H) x 18.75"(W) x 11"(D)
Where (H) = height of clock to tip of finials and (W) & (D) are parts of clock that meet the floor.
