Exquisite 1990 Comitti of London Barrell Clock - Bell Strike - German Franz Hermle Movement - Inspected, Cleaned and Oiled - Working Well A very rare chance to own a prestigious solid Mahogany Barrell Clock with a German Franz Hermle movement made in 1990 by Comitti of London. The company was original started in 1845 by Onorato Comitti, an Italian instrument maker, who opened his workshop in Clerkenwell, London. Comitti still make beautiful clocks today, this particular design selling for over £1,000.  It is a derivative of the popular Napoloen styled mantel clock with a intricately made bell strike movement by long standing makers Hermle of Germany. The wooden case is made from hand polished mahogany. Bearing in mind the clock is currently 34 years old, it is in amazing condition. The top shows very slight wear, and a few very small dinks add to it's charm and maintain it's history. The wonderful eight day bell strike movement is working perfectly, striking the time on the hour and once on the passing of the half hour. The movement has been removed, checked over, cleaned up and lubricated with high quality clock oil where necessary. A mainspring ratchet spring appears to have been replaced at some point, but is doing it's job well. It is keeping time, and can be incrementally adjusted if a problem arises. The clock has a gentle tick, and the bell has an exquisitely high tone, very unobtrusive and indicative of quality. (Video to be added shortly if not already above) The enamel finished dial and delicate period hands are in excellent condition, the convex glass is barely marked, the brass bezel has been cleaned and re-lacquered. Age & use has very slightly worn the door hinge, but it latches easily and stays closed. The original key is present, for winding both the time & chime springs. Approximate Size: 9" wide x 8.5" high x 5" depth (23cm x 21.5 x 13cm) A wonderful clock, in great condition & working well, looking for a new appreciative home! ** Please ensure to study the photographs well, as they form an important part of the description **
