18th Century Swedish Gustavian Tall Case Closk
About the Item
An exquisite Swedish tall case clock boasting a rounded crown and clean lines, complemented by a dry-scraped finish. The clock retains its original blue-green and alabaster paint with delicate touches of "Swedish pink" detailing around the dial door. The carved body features beveled molding and intricate fretwork decorations and rests upon carved bracket feet that lend a sophisticated look.
The iron face, overlaid with plaster, showcases meticulously hand-painted numerals, while intricately detailed sweeping hands announce the time. All parts are present, and we have been told that the clock could work again.
Featuring elegant curves and a striking dry-scraped finish, this Swedish longcase clock is designed to stand out as the centerpiece of any space.

Located in Mckinney, TX
This set of four antique wardrobe doors, reclaimed from a country manor in France, exudes timeless character. Each door showcases a 2-panel design with raised panels framed by grooved and beveled trim, emphasizing traditional craftsmanship.
