    KINGOTTOof…
    (2 items)

    Dear friends,
    Here is the story I was told from the grandmother.
    This clock along with 2 wooden chairs and a chess table belonged to the first King of Greece Otto and found their way to our family since a relative was in the court.
    I am trying to find out more and I am posting the pictures, to know if this was made around 1840 -1860 .my email is dennisgiannissopoulos@windowslive.com
    I also have all the furniture described above and photos, so any enthusiastic with knowledge is welcome.

    thank you for your time
    Dennis

      Looks like a Hamburg American Clock Co. model... Which on I'm not sure. Look on the movement and see if there isn't a crossed arrow mark somewhere on the back plate... Google HAC clocks in images and you'll see what I mean. Many pictured bear a strong resemblance to your clock... Here's a history of the company: http://mb.nawcc.org/showwiki.php?title=HAC_history

      Pretty sure this is a Schlenker & Kienzle, looking at the clockface, wood work etc. Wood need to see a picture of the movement to confirm though
