Sold ‘As Is’ – Decorative Piece Only:

This Swedish Mora Clock Antique is sold as is and intended as a decorative piece. It includes the original mechanism, but it is not guaranteed to be in working order. If you want the clock to function, we offer two upgrade options:

1. High-Torque Battery Mechanism – $250 (approx. £200): This mechanism keeps time accurately and eliminates the need for winding.
2. Chiming Mechanism – $350 (approx. £280): This option adds a chiming feature that plays recorded chimes through a speaker, with volume control and an 8-hour night off switch.

Important Notes:

• Wood Movement: The bentwood in Mora clocks may shift or split due to changes in temperature and humidity after shipping. This is a normal occurrence and adds to the clock’s authentic vintage character.

This Antique Swedish Mora Clock from the early 1800s is a remarkable piece, perfect for collectors or those seeking to enhance their space with historical charm. Whether you choose to display it as a decorative piece or restore its functionality, this Swedish Mora Clock Antique will add elegance to any room.
