Antique Clock Movement with Roman Numeral Dial on Wooden Board, Chain Drive – c. 1900, for Restoration

An antique wall clock movement, presumably from the 19th or early 20th century, set into a wooden frame with a removable back cover and a shaped wooden top.

Mechanism

The movement runs via a chain drive and probably comes from an old European pendulum wall clock. The dial bears Roman numerals; with the back open, the mechanism is visible.

Details & Condition

• Material: wood, metal movement, enamel or painted dial
• Dimensions: see photos
• Date: presumably 19th to early 20th century (antique)
• Condition: authentic aged condition with wear and old paint/whitewash; requires professional service or restoration. Sold as is.

Who It's For

For clock collectors, restorers and tinkerers – or as an atmospheric industrial decor piece.

Care

Store dry; have the movement oiled only by a professional.

At the flea market in Gmünd the old clockwork leaned against a crate of tools – silent, yet it seemed only to be waiting to tick again.
