German Figural Swinging Arm Mystery Clock by Junghans
The intrigue of the figural swinging arm clock… A wonderful example of the mystery clock crafted by renowned German clock maker Junghans. A standing figure of Juno with flowing robe gracefully holds the post from which the pendulum swings. The round clock sits atop a 3-rod pendulum with spherical bob. The clock has a gilt crest and shoulder supports, and features a white porcelain dial with crisp Arabic numerals. The clock dial bears the Junghans star logo. Within the clock is an 8-day time only mechanical movement. The lovely statue is spelter and has a two-toned gilt and bronze patinated finish. The secret to the “mystery” of the pendulum’s movement? There is a very small pendulum as part of the clock movement which operates in counter motion to the large pendulum.
This wonderful clock has also been fully restored and comes with a one year warranty.
