Description

The Lenzkirsch factory records show that clocks with serial numbers up to 183950 were not marked Lenzkirsch, but numbers above that had their trademark inscribed on the movement. This nice walnut case has some carvings, barley twist columns, applied ornaments, finial, and wall levelers. As usual there are three glasses, some wood finished with ebony paint, and overall just a clean nice, 31" high case. On the bottom is a place about an inch square that looks scorched like it hung over a coal oil lamp or candle. The brass 8 day movement is marked as previously indicated, and is clean and running. It has a great RA pendulum bob, and a porcelain beat scale. I broke the suspension hanging the pendulum. An easy fix but I don't have time to do it.
