Stunning Fully Restored 8 Day Scottish Long Case Grandfather Clock

This magnificent 8 day time piece has has just had a total restoration completed. It is sold with a 12 month warranty. The movement was completely dismantled and rebuilt with no expense spared. It now runs “as new”, having a gorgeous slow tick and keeping excellent time. The movement was stripped, cleaned, re-bushed, reassembled, oiled, and adjusted. It is now set to give another 200 years of service if maintained correctly. This is a very Scottish Long Case clock with a Beech rather than mahogany or Oak Case giving it a more modern contempory Hamptons look. The case is beautiful and has no borer or rot. It has the most wonderful colour and grain in the timber. The gold hands are engraved and the painted dial with Roman numbers features a series of beautiful pictures in each of the four corners. The case has a wonderful solid presence to it. It features an opening door over the dial, with the glass held in place with plaster. Below the removable hood is another lockable door complete with original key through which the pendulum and weight are accessed. The clock strikes a bell with a crisp ring each hour, striking the number that matches the hour. It is hard to believe but this clock dates from a time before electricity, phones, radio, plastic and even cars.
