Antique Dry-Scraped Swedish Mora Clock

$0.00
Sold

Traditional Mora clock boasts a stunning hand-scraped finish. Expertly crafted from Swedish pine, it showcases an unparalleled timeworn patina with remnants of the original blue, "Swedish pink," and alabaster paint, offering a glimpse of its original color scheme. The clock's belly is adorned with faint shadows of hand-painted flowers, while a carved bow, retaining its original blue-gray paint, elegantly graces the top of the bonnet. The iron dial, overlaid with plaster, features meticulously hand-painted numerals. Intricately detailed sweeping hands announce the time. Deemed too short at one time, the clock was lovingly raised to its current stature. 

Hand-forged iron hinges and an opening latch serve as charming reminders of its age. Its graceful curves and beautiful dry-scraped finish make this lovely longcase clock a focal point of any room.
