Antique American Clocks January 2021
182. $450
Gustav Becker Grand Sonnerie, ca. 1875. A 50-inch walnut, 3-weight wall clock with brass ornaments. An outer porcelain dial with an enameled inner dial, slightly different in color, with pierced hands. Three brass weights and
a large brass pendulum, newer glasses top and bottom. The movement is signed Gustav Becker and strikes on two wire gongs; it
is running and striking reliably, but the gong strikes need adjustment. This model is shown in Ly’s book, Gustav Becker Clocks,
on page 104, including the movement. A nice example. $500-$750.
