Inspired by Italian design The
Ridgeway Venetian Grandfather Clock
bring
European elegance to any home. This round top style grandfather clock with
pinched waist is finished in an aged Beaux finish with Gold leaf accents and a
large Roman numeral dial. A leaf motif crowns the top of the Venetian
Grandfather Clock and also cradles the dial base. Sleek reeded columns run
along side the clock and raised ornate carvings frame the top and bottom of the
door. The second tiered base also features fully turned columns with wide
reeds. The bottom Bombé shape base is deeply carved on all sides with the
matching gold leaf motif. Hidden storage shelves
in the mid case transform this artistic time telling accent piece into
functional storage space as well.
The Ridgeway Venetian Grandfather Clock features a
convenient quartz clock movement; a quartz movement will keep time faithfully
and give you all the benefits of a traditional grandfather clock but without
requiring weekly winding. The Venetian Grandfather Clock’s dual movement plays
the charming Westminster & Bim Bam chimes –
the traditional Westminster Chimes
as heard from London’s famous Big Ben clock
(click here to listen) and the classic Bim-Bam chime which strikes a
"bim-bam" tone at the half-hour and then counts the corresponding hours with the
same tone
(click here to listen).
This Venetian Grandfather Clock’s movement also includes a
convenient automatic nighttime chime silence option and adjustable volume
control. Adjustable floor levelers are located under all four corners to ensure
the clock remains level on uneven surfaces or carpet. Requires one AA battery,
not included.
This American made Ridgeway Clock Company grandfather clock
comes complete with a 1 year manufacturer’s warranty on both parts and
workmanship. |
