This beautifully carved Grandfather Clock is weight driven. German made. Circa 1912. It stands at just over 6 ft tall. My latest addition and I pick it up on the weekend. I can't wait to see this positioned in my home as it's such a lovely piece. In full working order.
Finally restored and in my new place.
I have one very similar, keeps excellent time and the chimes are beautiful and rich sounding. When looking through the glass on my clock, you can see the maker's plate; "E. Lauffer."
Hey Bryan...This clock is a Mauthe...it came with it's original paperwork would you believe...it's powdering at the edges it's so old. Like your clock, the chimes are deep and rich...just lovely and it is a Westminster...I was pleasantly surprised. These old Grandfathers are stunning pieces and I was so pleased to take ownership of this one!
In 1961 dad & mom & us kids was stationed in Augsburg, Germany when parents bought similar Grandfather clock from Herbert Meyer in Augsburg. Runs beautifully & on time always. Had it referbished 1998. Hasn't been moved since 1972.
