Antique German cappuccino carriage clock from ca. 1910–1920, metal case with chrome and brass, Liberty-style floral relief decoration, wind-up mechanical movement with two dials (time and alarm) and a carillon melody lasting several minutes; in good used condition and in working order.
Description from the seller
Antique capuchin alarm clock of German manufacture from the first two decades of the 1900s. The case is made of chrome-plated sheet metal and brass, the floral Art Nouveau decorations are in relief brass, and it is equipped with a carrying handle, also in brass. The German mechanism is manually wound with the appropriate key, a dial with independent adjustment that indicates the time and the moment of the alarm. The peculiarity of this Cappuccina is that the alarm is replaced by carillon music. It lasts a few minutes and is of a sweetness and romance that are unique. The clock works perfectly, has never been repaired, and is equipped with a winding key. Two dials, one showing the time and the other the alarm moment. This model, with the side glass panels that allow you to view the mechanism in operation, is decidedly more refined and sought after. The winding lasts about 2 days. WE DO NOT SHIP OUTSIDE THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY. For the Islands we reserve the right to charge an additional amount for shipping costs that may be increased by the carriers.
