A Miniature Two Train Vienna Regulator

19th century
For Sale by Chalfont Clocks
Description

A rare wedge shaped laterndluhr Vienna regulator with a two train weight driven movement of exceptional quality. The eight day movement strikes the hours on a spiral gong and is powered by two brass bound weights. This beautiful miniaturised example of a Viennese type movement has all the elements of its larger counterparts, including a pull repeat lever and elongated deadbeat escapement, and the pendulum is suspended from the case on a knife edge pivot. The crisp white enamel dial signed W. Blätterbauer, Fünfkirche, has a gilded engraved surround with roman numerals and blued steel hands.

The case is made of ebonised fruit wood with contrasting string inlay with glazed front and sides surmounted but a pediment top.

This clock dates from the 1830’s, made in Fünfkirche, now know as Pécs in Hungary, during the Austro-Hungarian Empire and is rare due its size and shape, as well as unusually being a more complex striking movement rather than a timepiece.

FAQs

A Vienna regulator is a highly accurate pendulum clock developed in Austria during the early 19th century, characterized by a weight-driven mechanism, enclosed glass case, and clean architectural lines.

Traditional Vienna regulators feature wooden cases made from or veneered in mahogany, walnut, or ebonised timber, housing brass clockworks, lead-filled brass weights, glass panels, and porcelain or enamel dials.

Authentic period regulators display deadbeat escapements, slim weight-driven movements rather than spring mechanisms, hand-cut gear teeth, and finely hand-drawn Roman numerals on multi-piece enamel dials.

Mount the clock as a focal point in a hallway, study, or alcove where its dark casing and warm brass components provide architectural structure alongside minimalist modern artwork or heritage furnishings.

Ensure the casing is mounted strictly level on a solid wall to prevent pendulum dragging, keep the glass free from dust with a dry cloth, and have the mechanical movement lubricated by a professional horologist every three to five years.
