Lot #2157: Vintage Kundo Anniversary Torsion Pendulum Clock – Brass Carriage-Style Case with Beveled Glass – West Germany – With Key

Vintage Kundo anniversary clock with a rotating four-ball pendulum, in a brass carriage-style case with etched glass panels. This clock comes from the estate of a dedicated radio and audio hobbyist who spent over 50 years working on, servicing, and collecting vintage mechanical and electronic pieces. Fine German clockwork was a natural fit for his collection. Kundo, made by Kieninger & Obergfell of West Germany, is one of the best-known names in anniversary clocks. These clocks are famous for their slow-turning torsion pendulum, which lets them run for long periods on a single winding. This example has a white dial with gold-tone numerals and hour markers, the Kundo name on the dial, and a decorative four-ball pendulum. The movement is fully visible through the glass. The case has a scrolled loop handle, ball finials at each corner, a shaped base on small feet, and glass panels etched with starburst corner designs. The winding key is included. One glass side panel is missing. It’s an ideal piece for a clock enthusiast to restore, or for display as is.
