The Worlds Finest Grandfather Hall Clocks

 "The Duke of Marlborough"

Model 8861

The best! It doesn't get better than this. An extremely rare Herschede; only 104 were made in 1982. There is no other Herschede like it, The Duke Of Marlborough. A touch of English influence handsomely evident in the stately design of the Duke of Marlborough grandfather clock. Cabinet of rich cherry solids with burl cherry overlays with one inch bevel glass sides and door. Exquisite carvings add a touch of elegance to the beautiful Cerisier Antique finish. Left and right movement side access doors with out of sight storage for door key and winding crank. Dial is pierce, hand engraved with 24k gold finish.  Raised black Arabic numerals and hands, also featuring a small second hand to count off seconds. A choice of three melodies is a feature of Herschede's renown American made nine tubular bell cable wound movement. The Westminster, Whittington, and Canterbury chimes may be changed as desired with striking hour count. Pendulum and weight shells of quality brass lacquered to preserve the finish. A choice of nickel plated or brass tubes, a matter of choice. In addition, there is an option of a custom made three vial pendulum. This Herschede also has the circa 1982 A64 new tooling 9 tubular movement. The Duke of Marlborough was a clock for the centennial celebration of the company, unfortunately Herschede would close its doors before that celebration.

Herschede, a symbol of wealth for the elite. Purely American Made.

The Duke of Marlborough, serious inquiries only.

 

 

 

"The Clock"

Model 250

The Worlds Finest Grandfather Hall clock

 

Herschede Board of Directors set out to build The Finest Grandfather Clock ever made or for that matter the finest known to mankind. Cost was of no consideration. As in all Herschede Clocks, no short cuts were taken. Completely hand made, once completed they were at a loss for words and called it ‘The Clock’, the model 250. It is not a question of conjecture nor a matter of opinion, ‘The Clock’ is in fact the worlds finest Grandfather Hall Clock. It is a clock that has withstood the test of time and highly desired. No two are exactly alike. Each speaks in its own cathedral tone. It’s incomparable cabinet, white mahogany imported from the Gold Coast of Africa, carefully veneered with rare Acacia Burl and/or Spanish Olive Ash Burl.  Accented with over 107 feet of strip brass, all hand cut and mitered. The entire cabinet is finished inside and out. It is in fact the most carefully made Grandfather Hall Clock money can buy. It cannot be compromised nor compared to any other Grandfather Clock antique or new. The world’s finest. Precision crafted completely by hand, born in Starkville, Mississippi.  An exquisite 9 tube, triple-chime movement. Gold plated dial, brass weights, and nickel plated or golden washed chime tubes.
