Swedish 1790s Long Case Mora Clock with Blue Gray Paint and Carved Crest

About the Item

A Swedish painted wood Mora clock from circa 1790s with carved crest, blue gray painted finish and single door. This exquisite Swedish Mora clock, dating back to the 1790s, is a testament to timeless craftsmanship and style. It boasts a blue-gray painted finish, beautifully distressed to reveal hints of the wood beneath, capturing the essence of rustic elegance. The clock features a single door and is crowned with a carved crest, adding a touch of sophistication to its curvy silhouette. While retaining its original parts and mechanism, the clock is not currently in working condition. However, it offers the unique opportunity for a modern upgrade: a quartz crystal movement with a battery can be installed by an expert clock shop in Atlanta. This modification allows the clock to function with ease, while preserving its original components for future restoration if desired. Please contact us to inquire about pricing and details. The clock face displays traditional numbers on an enamel background, enhancing its antique charm. It stands on a simply carved base, further accentuating its authentic appeal. This Mora clock would serve as a focal point in any home, bringing a piece of Swedish history into living rooms, hallways, or dining areas. Its presence not only adds a decorative element but also embodies a rich cultural heritage, making it a prized possession for any collector or enthusiast of antique furnishings.
