Carl Werner open-well Vienna, ca. 1880.  A 35-inch open-well Vienna in an intricately carved oak case. The case has probably been cleaned, if not refinished.  The two-part porcelain dial is in good condition with period hands and a R/A pendulum.  Note the carving in the frame on the back wall and how the dial door opens and folds back to give access to the movement.  The 8-day, time-and-strike movement has the Carl Werner logo; it is running and striking the wire gong on the hour and half-hour.  A nice example of this style.  $250-$500.
