AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Unique and rare copy of a HOLZRÄDER UHR from the period 1650-1700. This copy, made by an experienced clockmaker, is a faithful reproduction of a 16th-century wooden clock from Switzerland. Escapement: wooden balance wheel with aluminum foil to make the mechanism visible. The movement consists of wooden gears, as well as the clock housing. Hand-painted dial with Gothic numeral ring. Everything is wooden and pinned. On the top there is a set of adjustments to regulate the engagement in the escapement. The clock runs on a cord with two pulleys with a ball-shaped weight and counterweight. Note! This is not a time-measuring instrument, but a copy of how the first clocks were built. Photos are part of the description. Total weight approx. 4 kg. Shipped well-packed at the buyer's risk with PostNL Track & Trace.
