SOLD $1,000.00 Sold: Jun 9, 2024 on eBayOriginal Listing Description
Offered as a “Buy It Now” is this beautiful, restored antique Cuckoo Quail Clock in the “Fox and Grapes” theme based on a Aesop’s Fable, circa 1910. The carvings are in wonderful condition. I don’t see any damage but there may be a leaf tip repair ( lower right leaf near grape cluster) which is hard to see. The 30 hour cast brass movement was restored last year and runs perfectly. (See Video). The leather bellows and pipes have also been restored and sound wonderful! Original carved bones hands, numerals, dial, leaf pendulum, back door with wire gongs and weights. The dimensions are 27 inches high (not counting weights and pendulum) 17 1/2 inches wide on the bird crest and about 10 inches deep. Please look at all the pictures for a better view. The pictures are part of the description. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. Please know what you are purchasing. If you have no knowledge of setting up, operating and maintaining an antique cuckoo clock, please seek the advice from a professional clock specialist.
