Description: Gorgeous large walnut Renaissance Revival Victorian jewelers
wall regulator clock attributed to Kroeber. It has a metal box movement
with large porcelain dial, sweep second hand, brass weight, and large lyre
pendulum. We believe the case was made by Kroeber. It has a fancy crest
with top finial and a head in the middle flanked by two raised shaped burled
panels. There are double carvings on each side of the door. The glass on
the door is original and has the original gold decoration with "Regulator"
printed in the middle. The base has a burled panel with open carving
(replaced) just under the door. The top and bottom finials are old
replacements. Most of the jewelers regulators that we come across are
Eastlake - later Victorian. This is an elegant and stylish clock from a
slightly earlier period!
