SOLD $5,995.00 Sold: Jan 27, 2025 on eBayOriginal Listing Description
Rare HUGE 1890s Lenzkirch German Oak Grandfather Clock Dragonfish Wine Fountain. I'd like to offer for your consideration this 1 of a kind German oak Victorian Grandfather clock with Chinese brass Dragonfish wine or punch dispenser with spiket and bowl. Tail from the fish comes off, your butler pours a bottle of wine in the fish, and guests can fill their own glasses....very unique, very scarce feature on the clock. Clock was made by Lenzkirch, serial number 947370, I believe the clock was manufactured around 1894-1895. Condition - unfortunately, they're still in original unrestored condition, and they're in need of restoration. Some little pieces of moldings are missing, shows wear, scratches etc, top finials are missing, and the movement needs to be serviced as well. It is being sold as-is, and I'm sure it will cost a couple of thousands to put it back to its glory. It is a definitely 1 of a kind clock, and everyone is welcome to see it in person before deciding on purchasing the clock. Pictures don't do the judgment, it will take your breath away when you'll see it in person. This monster is 95" tall without the missing finials, 25" wide and 20" deep. It is a very big piece of "furniture", displays great, it would be a great addition to any clock collector or great decoration for any wine lover. Local pick-up preferred (18020 zip code), NYC or PHILLY $200 delivery fee, shipping is available. You can get a quote from uship.com. Thank you for looking, and feel free to contact me with any questions.
