Beautiful ornate Emilian Wehrle Black Forest Trumpeter Clock. Circa 1885 Pt 2

This clock is listed in Rick Ortenburger’s ‘Black Forest Clocks’ book published in 1991. His description of this clock was, “Large, heavily carved trumpeter clock by Emilian Wehrle. Eight horn musical movement, eight-day with tow tunes. Bone hands. The author has seen one other clock like this, but the example shown is in mint condition. Circa 1885.”

At some point I will upload a video of the trumpeter mechanism working. Still getting to know the clock and how it works.

Beautiful ornate Emilian Wehrle Black Forest Trumpeter Clock. Circa 1885

I have recently come into possession of this beautiful Emilian Wehrle black forest trumpeter clock. But this is a bit like, 'You never actually own an antique Black Forest clock, you merely look after it for the next generation.' Any advice on looking after trumpeter clocks would be appreciated. Thanks, Bob.

Good afternoon, I just bought this Sorg clock. I'd like some information about the manufacturer, year of manufacture, and how it works. I see it has only one chain and one pulley, but it also has movement trains and a chime mechanism. What can you tell me? Thank you.

It's a beautiful dial and surround, one of the typical styles for Sorg clocks. I haven't seen fancy hands like that. Usually hands on Sorg clocks are simple arrow pointers or moon hands. The hands on your clock fit properly, so I suppose they could be original.

Hello,


This clock has been in our family for almost 300 years. I have no information on it other than it was made in Wales. It is approximately 1 meter in height, 1/2 meter in width and 1/4 meter in depth.


Might anyone know if others like this exist?


Thank you.


Steve Stroschein
