Description
Slow, lazy pendulum swing, very quite, hang it in the bedroom, it will not keep anyone awake. Unsigned movement is polished just like the pendulum, weight, dial rings, grommet, and even the little key. 3 good glasses and a porcelain beat scale. The little 8 day movement slides into wood backboard mounting posts. The 35.5 inches mahogany case is very clean with dark painted highlights used on the columns, top, base, and some applied ornaments. Backboard grain and case grain expertly arranged like expensive antique furniture. Small 4 inches, 2 piece porcelain dial is near perfect, only the usual faint hairline, and signed, "Ad. Fabarek, Wien", who was probably the selling dealer.
