Grandmother Clock
This clock is made from a mix of solid yew and yew finish and is in great used condition throughout.
I would estimate the age of the clock to be around 35 years. The clock, as seen by the pictures, has been well cared for by the previous owners. Hopefully the pictures show the clock clearly. The clock has been manufactured by Fenclock's of Suffolk, a company noted for quality floor clocks!
The clock has been finished in a shade of medium yew.
The clock has a German Hermle triple 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 14 days for this work to be carried out.
The clock has a choice of 3 chimes - St Michael, Whittington & Westminster. It can also be manually silenced at any time. Any of these features can easily be selected by adjusting a lever that is located next to numeral 3.
The mechanism is powered by 3 brass heavy weights. The brass weight shells are in very good condition. The middle weight was replaced 30 years ago with another brand new weight from Hermle. It is an excellent match. I am a very honest seller and like sharing the history of all the clocks that I sell. The brass lyre pendulum is also in great condition but does have some degree of tarnishing.
The brass moon phase dial is in excellent condition and has the much sought after silver numeral ring.
Access to the movement is easily achieved by lifting the hood upwards and away from the main body of the clock. This leaves the movement/dial assembly intact making for easy access of the mechanism for tasks such as pendulum removal/replacement, adjustments to the suspension etc. Or may be to see the clock chiming and striking way.
This clock is very attractive and traditional in design, and looks and sounds superb.
The clock would enhance any home.
The dimensions of the clock are:
70.75"(H) x 14.75"(W) x 8.5"(D)
Where (H) = height to the tip of the finials and (W) & (D) where clock meets the floor.

This clock is made from a mix of solid mahogany (almost completely made from solid timber) and mahogany finish and is in excellent used condition throughout. There is the odd imperfection here and there, nothing worth noting. I would estimate the age of the clock to be around 25 - 30 years. 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 been manufactured by Smallcombe of Essex, a company noted for quality floor clocks!

The brass moon phase dial has a very small ding on the silver numeral ring (near numeral 3) which I have taken a picture of. This is noticeable in bright light but can hardly be seen in normal lighting; it depends how the light falls on the dial. When I purchased this clock I did not notice this at all but was told later by the owners that it had been done upon delivery during set up, about 20 years ago!
All the brass is very clean and very presentable!
Access to the movement is easily achieved by sliding the hood forwards and away from the main body of the clock.

I am unsure of the manufacturer of the clock - the dial states Emperor but I haven't seen this particular model of clock by Emperor before. However, Emperor did do a very wide range!
The clock has been finished in a shade of light -medium mahogany.
The clock has a German Hermle 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 14 - 18 days for this work.
The chimes can be manually silenced at any time. This is easily achieved by adjusting a push rod that is located in the waist of the clock. The push rod is also used to select the Westminster chime!
The mechanism is powered by 3 brass heavy weights. The brass weight shells & pendulum disc are in good condition but the shells do have scuff marks here and there and some mild tarnishing. The imperfections have been caused by the constant handling of the weights when rewinding the clock over the years. However the weights can be positioned on the chains such that most of these imperfections are hard to see.
The brass moon phase dial is also in good condition but does have some tarnishing, mild scuffs etc nothing worth noting. The pretty revolving moon disc is very decorative with a few age related flaws.
The brass is very clean and presentable!
Access to the movement is easily achieved at the rear of the clock by removing the hood rear panel. However the pendulum can easily be hung in position from the front of the clock (via waist door) and set in beat. This clock has a beat adjustment screw to make super fine adjustments.
This clock is very attractive would enhance any size home.
The dimensions of the clock are:
70.75"(H) x 14"(W) x 8.75"(D)

The clock, as seen by the pictures, has been well cared for by the previous owners. Hopefully the pictures show the clock clearly. The roof of the hood of the clock has a small imperfection - a small section of the veneer has lifted slightly. I have taken a picture of this - please see the picture below the text box. I can assure the new owner that the whole area is solid - nothing is loose. The whole construction is solid throughout!
