This mantle clock is one of the finer examples made by Gustav Becker in the late 19th Century. Gustav Becker was the famous German clockmaker who was born in 1819 and founder of the brand Gustav Becker. At their time they were some of the finest clocks in Europe. This mantle clock is a particulary good example of his finest work. His name is imprinted on the back of the clock (see reverse image - his name can be seen behind the bell of the clock) The height of this clock is 21 inches
