This is a cool-looking vintage ball clock from the 1950's designed by George Nelson and manufactured by the Howard Miller Clock Company. Howard Miller is the son of famous American furniture designer, Herman Miller, but the father and son's companies are separate from one another. The quintessential 50's design evokes memories of an era long past, but not forgotten.The clock is a vintage original from the 1950's (not a reproduction) and came directly from the wall of a house where it has been running since the 50's. It still runs fine and would look great in a period room, or accenting some eclectic modern furnishings.The black balls are painted wood, and the rest of the clock appears to be brass. The clock is in excellent condition but there are a few minor nicks in the paint on the hands (they appear to be made out of aluminum), and some scratches on the brass. The wooden balls have some wear on their back sides (see photos).It appears the clock's electrical cord has been shortened and instead of having the cord come through a hole on the side of the unit whereby it would hang to the ground and be plugged in an electrical outlet, the cord has instead been pulled through a hole in the center of the rear of the clock in order for it to be mounted directly on a wall over an electrical socket. This effectively hides the ugly cord so you only see the beautifully designed clock when it is mounted on the wall. Please email me if you have any questions.Domestic shipping is $18.00 via USPS Priority Mail with delivery confirmation, plus insurance of $2.40 for the first $100.00 and $1.10 for each additional $100.00 (Insurance for items under $50.00 is $1.70).
