Antique American Clocks January 2021
84. $350
Anton Schlesinger three-weight Vienna regulator, ca. 1890. An interesting case style that
displays elements of the late Baroque and Jugenstil periods near the turn of the twentieth century. The 47-inch case is veneered
in a burled wood with additional grain painting to enhance the effect. The door glass looks original; the two-part porcelain
dial is signed “Anton Schlesinger in Wien” but there are no markings on the movement. The clock strikes on the quarter hours
and repeats the last hour count on two wire gongs. It is running, a bit tentatively, and striking as required. $350-$600.
