I have recently inherited this quite stunning clock (see photo), and would like to know a little more about it as its history with my family is vague to say the least.Any info greatly appreciated. | ||

Interesting piece, with the inline movement. These have finally appreciated and are fecthing at least $600. Your clock seem to be in excellent shape and has a Japanese? motif which may be harder to sell, but adds value to the right person. I'd estimate worth at the $800-1000 range. I can date it, if you are able to see the movement serial number. | ||

Hi Zaf. Thanks for your response. I've had a look for a seiel number and all I can find are 3 numbers on the clock. 1.On the winding mechanism plate which reads, SIU/472,I think (see pic), 2. Within the front glass of the clock is the number 8 and 3, On the base of the foot is 349. If the seriel number is anywhere else it must be well hidden. I've looked with a magnifying glass at the movement from the front with no success. Thanks again.  | ||

My gut feeling tells me early 1950s. | ||
