The is clock was designed as a monument to the traditional designs of the 18th century. It features hand-rubbed Solid mahogany and Mahogany veneered cabinetry with marquetry inlay and beveled glass. The movement is the well-known Urgos five tubular bell precision movement that plays the Westminster Chimes (which can be turned off). The movement is driven by Chrome weights and a brass pendulum. It has a solid brass face with a pewter finish, finely etched with raised brass Roman numerals, and lovely 18th-century ornamentation. There are 3 three dials that tell day, month, day, and date. Above the clock face is a moving disc that shows the phases of the moon.

(NOTE: The moon's face turns freely by hand but does not advance on its own. We have not looked into what needs to be done to fix this. All other dials function correctly and the clock runs continuously and chimes as intended without any issues).

This clock is heavy and very solidly built and has adjustable levelers on the bottom of the feet.

The clock measures approx. 89" tall to the top of the cast brass eagle between the handsome split pediment, 21" wide at the nicely carved base, and 13", also at the base.

This is a used, vintage clock, and although it is not in perfect condition, it is a wonderful-looking piece.
