Miniature One Weight Vienna Regulator
Circa 1870
This miniature Viennese Regulator was made by Jacob Weber, in Wien
(Vienna), Austria and is housed in a very attractive Walnut case. Jacob
Weber was listed as a Viennese Master in 1847 and made this Transitional Miniature circa 1870.
Miniatures were used to show the potential buyers the quality of the merchandise
they would receive, as the vendors had a much easier time carrying the small
clocks rather than the full size versions. So miniatures were typically made
with a higher quality of craftsmanship. This clock has half columns and
original top. 28" in height by 10" wide by 5 ¼" deep.
