Rare Black Forest lenzkirch Signed Automata Automaton Clock Project :

Here is another rare Black Forest clock I am clearing out. After decades of buying rare Black Forest clocks I am clearing out projects clocks I know I will never get to. Offing them here at .99 cents with . You set the value.

This is a rare signed Lenzkirch automaton clock. I have owned, and sold several of these over the years... But this is the only signed piece I have had. If your a collector of Lenzkirch clocks you will know how rare this piece is.

First photo is of an identical restored piece to show its potential. This sale is for the project pictures in photos 2-10.

The clock is a project. It is missing it\'s wood black painted base. It would be simple to construct, I can provide detailed photos and measurements of another complete clock to winning buyer.

It is also missing the teeter totter, the pendulum and escapement and platform the teeter totter attaches to is present. The teeter totter is nothing more then a piece of wood fashioned like a log. On the end are two weighted figures. I have seen monkeys, soldiers, squirrels etc. so there are lots of options to correctly recreate the teeter totter... Antique lead toy figures can be correctly used.

Again I can provide photos of several complete examples to wining buyer to aid in restoration.

Restored a unsigned clock is worth a few thousand dollars. I have never seen a signed Lenzkirch example sell.

Movement runs and is complete.

Last photo shows another similar example in the book, Black Forest Clocks, by Ortenburger, 1991.

Shipping offered at $25 anywhere in the 48 states.
