Description
You're in luck! It's still available! When you write, please let me know what day and time you would like to stop by between 11:30 a.m. and midnight -- and whether in my driveway in clear view of nine other houses, or the Wheaton Police Department vestibule. Because of massive data harvesting on this site, I do not text or make phone calls. I reply only to emails through this link and to no other. I do not reply to, "Is it still available" because that generally indicates spam. The Colonial Manufacturing Company was founded in the early 1900s, with John Spyker starting to make clocks under the "Colonial" name in 1899, and the company being incorporated in 1906. Based in Zeeland, Michigan, Colonial was renowned for producing high-quality grandfather clocks with premium, costly components that reflected the classic style of the American colonial period, emphasizing traditional craftsmanship and careful attention to detail. Colonial became well known for using premium materials and construction methods to ensure the longevity of its clocks for generations. Step back in time and bring a touch of classic American heritage into your home with this magnificent Colonial Model 6210 Grandfather Clock, in excellent, pristine condition, complete with its nine tubular chimes and original movement. This meticulously crafted heirloom is a testament to the enduring artistry of the renowned Colonial Manufacturing Company, a name synonymous with quality and tradition. Imagine the gentle, rhythmic tick-tock filling your living space, soothing to the hustle and bustle of life. Set your desired chime tone to silent, strike, Westminster, Whittaker, or St. Michael's. Listen to their rich tones and very crisp, robust sounds. The alloy that Colonial used for its chimes is fantastic and well-renowned for deeply resonating throughout the living space. The fullness of sound is difficult to believe that Colonial used no electronic aids during this era of pure mechanical design. This model 6210 is a highly sought-after vintage piece from 1979, representing the pinnacle of Colonial's dedication to exquisite design and robust construction before Colonial closed its doors in 1983 because consumers ran to cheap imitators like Howard Miller. Crafted with the finest materials, its rich, lustrous, solid mahogany wooden case, showcasing its natural, captivating grain, exudes warmth and handsome sophistication. No fiberboard or particle board exists here, and no damage to any hardwood panel or carving exists. The classic American colonial style shines through, with its clean lines and understated elegance, making it a perfect focal point for any discerning home. Peer through the crystal-clear glass to admire the mesmerizing swing of the pendulum and the graceful descent of the weights, a captivating dance of precision engineering. The beautifully detailed moon dial face adds another layer of charm, a nod to the timeless appeal of these iconic timepieces. This masterpiece is not just functional, but is a true work of art. This Model 6210 embodies the legacy of the Colonial Manufacturing Company, offering not only accurate timekeeping but also a tangible connection to a bygone era of superior craftsmanship. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a stunning, well-preserved example of American clockmaking that comes from a non-smoking, pet-free, child-free, climate and humidity-controlled environment, and out of sunlight since its handcrafted assembly by Colonial artisans in 1979. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of history, a conversation starter, and a beautiful addition to your home that will be cherished for generations. Priced aggressively low to sell. Note that I just downsized and moved, along with the clock. It was working perfectly until the move. Now, the pendulum swings for a while, then stops. I don't know what is wrong--perhaps it is out of balance or the floor is not level--but my time with it has come to a graceful end and it is now appropriate to have a "changing of the guard."
