About the Item

Unlock the quiet poetry of time with this rare genuine Mora clock from Northern Sweden, crafted circa 1820. Fashioned from solid pine, its curvaceous form showcases the elegance of Swedish country design, further elevated by delicately hand-carved wooden detailing along the crown and door frame. Still wearing its original paint, softly faded into a dreamy patina over two centuries, this clock radiates both authenticity and understated grace. The piece retains its original mechanism, pendulum, and weights, making it a true collector’s item. While the movement has not been tested, it is sold as found, preserving its untouched character for purists and restoration enthusiasts alike. A sculptural presence, this Mora clock is more than a timekeeper; it is a historical heirloom, a whisper from the past, and a timeless accent to any refined interior.
