Japanese Pedestal Clock
Located in New Orleans, LA
This magnificent Dai-dokei (pedestal clock) is one of the finest and rarest examples of Japanese horological artistry. These clocks were often used to adorn castles, corridors and prominent entrance halls, and for distinguished citizens during the Edo period, they were essential arbiters of daily life. Soon after their creation, clockmakers realized that this pedestal design was too delicate for Japan's earthquake-prone landscape. That this clock and lacquer case have endured centuries of earthquakes and still remains in pristine condition is miraculous.
The clock features a weight-driven brass two-train movement that is equipped with a verge escapement and a short pendulum, which regulate the clock's timekeeping. The striking train is controlled by a count wheel and indicates the hours and half hours with a pleasant chime from a bell. The brass dial plate is adorned with intricate floral motifs that add a touch of elegance. At the center of the plate is a rotating chapter ring, which is divided into 24 silver movable chapters — 12 for the hours and 12 for the half hours. The pieced blued steel hand remains fixed while the chapter ring rotates — a traditional Japanese innovation — allowing for precise timekeeping. In addition to its timekeeping features, the plate includes two apertures located in the lower corners that show the sixty days of the Japanese month.
The clock's case features meticulous details, including a black lacquered wooden case embellished with lavish mother-of-pearl vine...
