Grandfather Clock-VGC/Kieninger WestminsterChimes/NATIONWIDE PERSONAL DELIVERIES

Grandfather Clock

(Please ignore background reflections in the images of the clock)

*Manufactured by Richard Broad / approximately 50 + years of age

*The clock is fitted with a Kieninger Westminster Chime movement.  The chimes can be manually silenced at any time by sliding the hood forward a few inches and adjusting the long levers positioned either side of the movement (to the downward position.  Very straightforward to do).

*The movement is weight driven on chains and wound by pulling the chains downwards. 

*The clock is in very good used condition.  The clock case does have a few age related imperfections here and there, nothing significant ... nothing more than what you would expect from an item over 50 years of age.  Hopefully the pictures show the clock clearly.  I can do a more detailed video of the clock if you require that.  The ebay video only allows about a minute of clear filming.  If that time is exceeded, the videos are very poor quality!  However, I hope that the video uploaded allows the potential buyer to hear the excellent quality of the Westminster chime and houly strike.  Very deep and mellow chime!

The clock has been contructed from a mix of solid walnut and walnut finish. Typically, the doors and decorative features are solid timber. 

*The brass dial is in good condition.  There are imperfections on the dial which I have tried to picture.  The worst of these imperfections are along the lower section of the dial where the hood of the clock meets the dial which has caused contact scuff marks;  these imperfections are not visible when the hood of the clock is fitted in place!  The hood slides into position which makes for easy access of the mechanical movement.   

I have uploaded a picture of the clock without the hood in place.  If you zoom in you will see the area of the dial where the hood makes contact.  As I say, not visible when the hood is positioned in place.

The brass weights do have some mild soiling and imperfections but can be positioned on the chains such that these imperfections are hard to notice.  I have uploaded a picture of the 3 brass weights. They are in good overall conditiion!

And likewise, as above, the brass pendulum disc.

The clock movement has been professionally serviced  - the clock is ready to go!
