The Franklin - Mission Oak Wall Clock
SKU# rah215
THE FRANKLIN
This Chiming Mission Oak Wall Clock is simply beautiful!
The case is made in our own Michigan woodworking shop using the finest hardwoods and veneers, and then each clock is personally assembled and tested.
Highly detailed, the door on this magnificent timepiece is constructed from over 34 individual pieces.
The over-sized polished brass lyre pendulum is a personal favorite! I selected the Quad precision clock movement, which I believe is the BEST SOUNDING quartz chiming movement available on the market today. With a flip of a switch, you can set it to play either the Westminster chimes; the Ava Maria chimes; a "Bim-Bam" strike; or a single traditional "Gong" strike. The rich sound emulates the orchestral bells found only in high-end grandfather clocks.
This heirloom quality clock is beautifully hand-finished and the movement is loaded with special features:
-
The clock will chime either the Westminster or the Ava Maria chimes every 15 minutes - and also counts (strikes) out the hours.
-
The clock has a volume control so you can enjoy the full, rich, robust, sound - or turn it down to a whisper.
-
You can set the clock to chime at full volume day and night - or you can set it to be silent or reduced volume during the night hours.
-
You can set the clock to chime and strike only on the hour - instead of every 15 minutes.
-
Yes, the chimes may be turned off completely.
