BHA Marked Gustav Becker? 1907? Torsion Anniversary Clock Suspension Wire Broken
Item History & Price
This anniversary clock is thought to have been in our family since new. It was given to my great grandmother. It is in good condition for a clock of 100+ yrs old. Made of brass it is clearly stamped on the back with BHA for B H Abrahams and my little research suggests it may be a Gustav Becker clock dating to 1907 but I cannot be sure. The serial number of 1958654 is stamped on the back of the clock and on the underside of the weight the letter P and the same serial number appears scra...tched on. The brass has a lovely muted lustre. The glass dome is thought to be the original one - it has a number of nibbles around the underside but these are mostly hidden by the plinth recess it sits in. The clock was working fine when my mother owned it but then the suspension wire broke and this is how I inherited it. There are no other obvious faults known but I am not an expert. It comes with a normal size clock key (again this is thought to be the original) and a tiny key (I have no idea what this is for). Approximate dimensions:Overall Height (including dome) 29cmOverall Height (excluding dome) 27cmOverall Diameter of base 18.5cmPlease do look closely at all the photos as they form part of the description and ask any questions before bidding.
