Standing Jeweler’s Regulator, ca. 1890.  A dark walnut case with an old glass in the door and two side glasses.  The case sits on a matching base, total height is 75 inches; the two are separate pieces and it could be hung on a wall without the base.  The 11.5-inch porcelain dial is in excellent condition but is missing the sweep seconds hand – the post is there.  There is a brass weight and the usual jeweler’s pendulum, both in need of some polish.  I can get the clock to tick but not to run steady; the consignor says it is sensitive to positioning and will run without problem once its carefully leveled in the base.  $500-$1000.
