82.      $250

Unknown maker two-weight Vienna, ca. 1900.  The case is 48 inches long without the missing bottom finial; the case appears to be walnut.  Note the carvings on the rounded base and above the dial, as well as the crest. The door glass is not old.  The brushed brass and silvered dial is tarnished and needs cleaning, the hands appropriate. Note the wreaths embossed onto the dial, weights, and pendulum bob.  The inset on the backboard is grain-painted.  The unsigned movement is running and striking as expected on the hours and half-hours on a single rod gong.  $250-$500.
