Mora Clock Details

This elegant antique Swedish Mora clock dates from the 1800s and is finished in soft cream with gold detailing and delicate hand-painted floral decoration — a refined colourway prized in Gustavian and neoclassical Scandinavian interiors. A longcase clock in the Swedish tradition, the counterpart to the grandfather clock, it pairs a luminous painted case with botanical motifs and gilded accents.

The clock retains a working longcase movement with pendulum and two weights, striking a bell chime on the hour. It is a traditional 7-day mechanism, rewound once a week, with full set-up instructions included.

About this style of Mora Clock

The clock retains its original weight-driven longcase mechanism, complete with pendulum, two hanging weights, and an hourly bell chime — exactly as it left the Dalarna workshop two centuries ago. The mechanism is a 7-day movement, requiring a simple weekly wind.
