Buyer's Premium:

This lot comprises an assortment of antique and vintage wall and mantel clocks, predominantly mechanical in nature and presented in as found condition. The collection includes several Vienna Regulator style wall clocks, in the style of makers such as Gustav Becker, featuring dark-stained wooden cases with full-length glazed doors and fluted pilasters. These regulators possess circular white enamel or painted dials with Roman numeral chapter rings and twin winding holes. One dial displays a crown and anchor mark associated with the Gustav Becker manufactory. Also included is a mid-20th century oak wall clock with a scrolled pediment and silvered Arabic dial, an arched hood wall clock with an exposed pendulum and chain-driven movement, and a dark-stained mantel clock of streamlined form with gilt-line detailing. The lot is accompanied by several detached decorative components, including a cast metal horse cresting, carved lion masks, and various turned finials. The movements appear to be a mix of spring-driven and weight-driven types.
