Classic example of the Danish Bornholmer clock, circa 1840, in later salmon paint. - Tall Case Clock in Original Paint
Carved tall case clock from Norrbotten in northeast Sweden, ca.1790. The carving at the base shows the display of spread tail feathers of the blackcock, or European grouse. Further up the clock, two blackcocks are shown on potted evergreens, one flanked by two admiring hens. Wonderful carving and rich color. - Mora Clock Dated 1841
Swedish Mora clock dated 1841 retaining its wonderful painted decoration. The scenes on the body and base of the clock express the peasants' dissatisfaction with their French-born king, Charles XIV Johan, represented by the soldier who takes his whip to the Swedish people, shown as an ox who turns his head away. Over all flies a cuckoo, the bird which lays her eggs in another's nest. Below a cock calls the farmers to awake. (Though the Swedish Riksdag considered calling for the king's abdication, he survived the controversy and celebrated his Silver Jubilee in 1843.)
