PLEASE HELP



My name is Alanna, i am located in Johannesburg South Africa. I came across your website. My Father passed away a few months back and he was a well know clock maker in our area, he left us with a antique wooden Skull clock with the moving eyes almost like that dog clock you have on your website. As we are very unfamiliar with the industry could you possibly give me more info on the clock and please advise as to what we could sell it for? I am unsure of exactly where you are situated but maybe you know of someone that might be interested in buying it? I am pretty sure we could get a bit more from an international buyer then someone in our country. I do believe it is quite a rare piece? it is in working condition please see attached photo of it.

Submit your estimate of worth

Hi Alanna,

Your Skull Clock is valued between $600 and $1900 depending on the condition. If it is a clock by Fritz Oswald of Germany. One sold for $635.50 in 2006 another in 2011 for $1875.

Here is an example of one that sold for $1875

As for selling it you will need to determine what condition it is in and post it in an online auction.

Hope this helps,
