Hi John, I am sorry to bother you again.

How much are reproduction grandfather clocks worth roughly?

For example a reproduction 7ft wooden veneer.

And genuine ones roughly, I know I am being very grey, but I am afraid I cannot elaborate more, as my limited knowledge in this area...

Kind regards mate,


Chris

Very hard to give a price for a real one.
but we will have a go.


(wind by pulling the chain) = 30 hour worth a lot less

8 day (2 key holes on face) only ones people buy

Brass face worth more than painted face. Arch dial is better.

A rolling moon on the face is worth more
Any automator is worth a lot more ( eg. a moving ship or part of an orchestra )

Oak case slim long door short in height but still has a tall base and feet makes it worth more.

Mahogany case has to be not fat or having a Welsh name
a lot of inlay and a swan neck pediment makes it worth more.

City names like Chester, Liverpool, Manchester and of cause London make a clock worth more.

Price wise a pine case long case clock 30 hour painted face in poor condition £250-£280

A Oak country clock 8 day flat top £500 to £800

A City clock tall and magnificent in perfect condition £3500 to £5000

Just a guide . Best to show photograph on your post

I have a customer who is looking for a one hand long slim door oak long case.
