Description

This beautiful grandfathers clock has been in the family since 1918 when my husband's grandmother purchased it at an estate auction in 1918 for $279.00 (pretty steep back then).  The very top of the cabinet was lightly sanded because it was too tall for the ceiling height.  The mechanism was recently refurbished and cleaned and the clock is in excellent working order.  It has two types of music and also has a silent.

The weights pendulum and gongs are all present.
