Description

When the Hotel Owners Bought their Luxury 5 * Hotel at Rye East Sussex some 37 Years ago, this Excellent Quality Longcase Clock sat at the top of the stairs to the first floor overseeing the Dining Area. Back in the 1920s it was probably bought new and Most Guests would have passed and admired it on the way to their room.

The Movement is a Good example of the German Peerless 8 Day Movement . It hadn't worked for many years but having been Checked and Serviced is Now Offered in Good & Full Antique Working Condition.

It Plays a Choice of Westminster, Whittington or St Michael Tunes on Each Quarter with Increasing Lengths on Long Mellow Embee Gong Rods.

The Brass Dial with Silvered Chapter Ring also has the Lever Options of Strike/Silent and Chime/Silent.

The English Oak Case is of Good Proportions and Lovely Patination. Raised on Bracket Feet with Attractive Astragal Glazed Trunk Door.

Height 80.5in or 204.5cm
