Langston 217.17cm Grandfather Clock finished in Windsor cherry on select hardwoods and veneers. This Langston 217.17cm Grandfather Clock has a stately appeal. The graceful split pediment features a turned finial and a rare book matched olive ash burl overlay with a decorative shell overlay in the centre. The polished brass-finished dial offers elaborate corner spandrels, centre disk and a silver chapter ring with applied brass Arabic numerals. A lamp behind the dial illuminates the pierced astrological blue moon phase, for a delightful twinkling star effect. A decorative olive ash burl pattern on the inside back panel is illuminated by the interior light. Polished brass-finished weight shells and pendulum with a centre disk that complements the dial. Reeded columns with turned top and bottom caps flank the door. The sculpted base offers a decorative cut-out. The lower door panel features book matched olive ash burl overlays in the corners that frame the crystal cut v-grooved glass. Removable glass upper side panels allow easy access to the movement. A high-precision, German-made, Kieninger® cable-driven, Westminster chime movement plays 0.25, 0.5 and 0.75 chimes accordingly with full chime and strike on the hour. Automatic night-time chime shut-off option. Adjustable levellers under each corner provide stability on uneven and carpeted floors. Free Heirloom record document with brass-finished capsule is included. Locking door for added security.
