The SM Imitated from 18th Century Frech Antique Bronze Mechanical Falling Ball Clock with Square Cover & wooden Base JG9003
Here we are offering a fantastic mystery Ferris wheel bearing ball driven crystal regulator clock. Unlike traditional wind up or weight driven clock, this unique clock receive its working power from a series of large steel ball bearing, which rolling down the top tray. The steel balls are quite in good size too, 2" in diameter. And there are 16 of them. When the ball clears on the Ferris wheel, it simply rolls down to the bottom drawer. After it collects a few of the steel ball bearing, you simply replace them back on the top tray, which has designated channels that allows the balls to roll down to the large Ferris wheel. The top lion can be easily lifted off and reveals the large channels. It just takes a few seconds to get the large steel balls back on the track. This is truly unusual clock. The clock case is made solid brass with large beveled glass on all four sizes. This is a very heavy clock. It weights 50 lbs. with the ball bearings installed. The size of this clock is also magnificent. It's 23-1/2" tall, 11-3/4" wide, and 9-1/8" deep. This clock has a multiple color porcelain dial and a visible platform movement through the round window at 12 o'clock position. Just below the dial, you will notice a barometer and a thermometer on the left. They certainly offer you more info than other clocks. This clock is almost identical to the one that is currently in display at Palace Museum of Forbidden City in Beijing. That clock is made around 1885 and given by the French government to the Emperor of Qing Dynasty. This clock is in good working order. It is a "must have" piece for any clock collector.

INTRODUCTION OF The Falling Ball Clock
The Falling Ball Clock is also known as the Spherical Weight Clock. This clock has no mainspring, no key and no winder! It works solely on gravity with the balls slowly moving down the large'paddlewheel' so provicing the force for the clock. The speed of the movement is controlled through an 11 jewelled paltform escapement to enable accurate timekeeping. The balls fall from the paddlewheel onto the base(1every 4 hours) and when several have collected they can be replaced on the top rack to give virtual perpetual motion. The clock comes with 24 balls and a solid mahogany base. An optional glass case is available.
