Reguladora grandmother clock, ca. 1970?  This is a 68-inch grandmother clock made in Portugal in the late 20^th century.  Reguladora (Fabrica Nacional de Relogios) is the oldest clock and watch manufacturer in Portugal, based in Vila Nova de Famalicao in northern Portugal.  The case is lacquered in a cream color with raised gold floral decorations on all surfaces.  Some of the gilded trim paint is chipping off, particularly along the top edge of the hood. There is a beveled glass in the hood door and fabric-backed grids on the sides to allow the chime (Westminster or Ave Maria) come through on the quarter hours; it plays on six chime rods and counts the hours on four rods on the opposite side.  It is spring-driven with a pendulum; the movement is heavy and well-made.  It is running, chiming, and striking as required.  Not a common clock. $200-$500.
