A two-weight Vienna Regulator wall clock. A classic form. 225127.

This wall clock is the type commonly called a Vienna regulator. Viennas were originally produced in limited numbers. Production increased significantly in the 1860s to meet the increasing demand. This fine example was most likely made circa 1900.

The style of this case is typical of the later form. The case is constructed in walnut and rosewood veneers. The top is nicely shaped, and the bottom features a pediment. A glass door protects the dial, weights, and pendulum. The dial is composed of two separate pieces, separated by an interior brass bezel, or inner brass ring. Black Roman-style hour numerals are positioned on a closed minute ring. Fancy pierced blued steel hands display the time. The movement is weight-driven and will run for eight days on a single wind. It is a two-train design striking the hours on a coil wire gong. This movement uses a rack-and-snail striking system. The pendulum bob is brass on one side and is supported with a wooden rod. 

This clock measures approximately 46 inches long and was made circa 1900.

It is inventory number 225127.
