$421 USD SaleSALE Antique 18K Gold Pendant Pocket Watch, Enamel Face, Swiss
Antiques:Clocks & Pocket Watches
We can't find a maker mark that we're able to identify, though you see in our images what we had to work with. I think this is a Swiss made watch, though that enameled face certainly makes it look French, don't you agree? And the watch was out of a French estate, which means little as to origin, I know, but bears adding to info since we don't have origin. The watch is a stunning little lady's watch, perfect for use as an antique pendant hung from your favorite gold chain. It's as much a piece of ...
$421 USD SaleSALE Antique Enamel Face Jeweled Travel Clock, KIENZLE, Germany
Antiques:Clocks & Pocket Watches
Well, this one was working after winding it, and I find that it works about 5 minutes and then stops. I'm not sure if it just needs a good cleaning (likely) or if it's just not winding enough to keep it going. But the fact that it works tells us that the mechanism is entirely intact, and that whatever it needs, it's minimal. And of course we bought it for its absolutely superb look, high appeal. Isn't is a beauty! This is a German clock, made and signed by Kienzle, a company who based on our ...

Antiques:Clocks & Pocket Watches
Fine antique mid to late 1800s Victorian era pocket watch display box or etui, maroon leather backing with carriage top handle, easel stand and original fitted interior! Meant to hold a #14-16 pocket watch, it will accommodate up to a 1 7/8" diameter but has a 1 5/8" view.

Antiques:Clocks & Pocket Watches
The Victorian lady's brooch-held timepiece, or watch worn on a chatelaine or chain gave way in late Victorian times to the 'modern' invention of the wristwatch, the first manifestation or style shown here in this beautiful old bracelet watch. The natural transition from the enameled fob watches ladies had been wearing was a simple one with addition of brackets to which either a ribbon, velvet or leather strap, or, as in this case, chain could be attached so the timepiece could be worn on the ...

SOLDSOLD Antique French Desk or Small Mantel Clock, Enamel Dial, Lapis Lazuli Trim, Works Fine!
Antiques:Clocks & Pocket Watches
The clock is just gorgeous, small and perfect for your boudoir, bedside table in a guest room, or for a desk or bookshelf collection. It's wound from the backside, (see images) and is running well. I am unsure about the duration (8-day or what), but we did test it to be sure it's running. I suspect it's one that will need winding each day, though. The clock case is really a little beauty! Elevated on 3 ornate dore bronze legs, it's got a stand of lathe turned lapis lazuli stone which is echoed ...

SOLDSOLD Antique 19th Century Heavy Bronze Tiffany & Co., Desk, Mantel Clock, Works Great!
Antiques:Clocks & Pocket Watches
Technically, I suppose you could use this as your alarm clock rather than using your iPhone4s as I do, and it's tempting to put aside the modern marvels for the marvels of the 1800s, particularly when you see this fabulous heavy Bronze alarm (or not) clock made by Tiffany & Co., NYC. I haven't found a date reference for this amazing old beauty, but my guesstimate would put it somewhere between 1860-70, if pressed. It's got a slightly Gothic hint to it, as did the Eastlake movement, and while it ...
Antiques:Clocks & Pocket Watches
A stunning 19th century French desk or side table or boudoir clock, this key-wind beauty is made in form of a Louis XIV Lyre with the sun god, himself, worked into the dore bronze frame (up top). The face or dial of this stunningly beautiful 9.75" tall clock is entirely hand enameled (kiln-fired), as is the deep cobalt blue base of the clock. The clock is running well, keeping good time, though as with all antique clocks, it's unlikely it keeps perfect time and might need slight adjustment after ...| Items 1 - 28 of 28 | Page 1 of 1 |
