Antique Bornholmer Longcase Clock-Beige

Bornholm, a small island in the Baltic Sea off the coast of Sweden, has been known historically as a thriving community of artists and craftsmen. Longcase clocks like this, equivalent to the Swedish Mora clocks and patterned based on the Grandfather’s clock of Britain, is a classic Scandinavian piece borne of the rich Bornholmer design tradition. Elegant in beige, this rare 19th-century clock is a beauty made from pine, decorated with quartz columns, intricate festoons, and a carved drape. The enamel clock face has original handpainted Roman numerals and surrounded by a leaved wreath in gold.
