AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Gustav Becker – Antique Oak Wall Clock – c. 1903 – Germany
An antique Gustav Becker wall clock from the beginning of the 20th century, housed in a richly decorated oak case.
The case features turned columns, carved floral details, three decorative finials and an architectural pediment. The lower section is finished with an ornamental gilt-coloured metal applique.
The dial has Arabic numerals, ornate hands and applied gilt floral decorations. Its metal surround shows an attractive natural patina.
The mechanical movement has full brass plates and bears the Gustav Becker trademark, the Freiburg in Schlesien mark and serial number 1647200. The movement dates to approximately 1903.
The clock is in very good working condition. The movement runs very well, and the striking mechanism operates correctly. The spiral gong produces a pleasant, deep sound.
The richly decorated pendulum features the Gustav Becker monogram and matches the ornament on the lower part of the case. Both the pendulum and winding key are included.
The oak case is well preserved, with attractive wood grain and the natural character of an antique piece.
