Antique London Tall Case / Grandfather Clock c. 1830
SOLD $2,995.00 Sold: Dec 25, 2019 on eBayOriginal Listing Description
A highly original London clock by James Douns, unlisted in my books but the guy made a fine clock. Eight day, moon dial and calendar work perfectly, runs and strikes perfectly. The dial has been restored ($560) and the case is now refinished (see last pics). I knew the case had nice inlays but I did not know how fine the casework was until I redid it. Amazing crotch mahogany veneer and the rest is solid mahogany. 2 pics show the case before it was redone. Worth the effort in my view.<br />Measures 89" x 20" x 10". Questions to 3305645444.<br />Pickup here or choose a carrier you will pay
