Description:

The Ridgeway Biltmore Vanderbilt Grandfather Clock R2538 is a very special Limited Edition piece. When George Vanderbilt conceived Biltmore, his goal was to create a home where family and friends could find an oasis from the every day and also have a life experience so extraordinary it would stir the senses and rejuvenate the spirit. Create a legacy of extraordinary living in your own home with the Vanderbilt Limited Edition grandfather clock.

Inspired by many priceless artifacts from George Vanderbilt"s collection, this magnificent timepiece embodies the quality and craftsmanship that is Biltmore. Hand crafted in the United States and finished in Estate Cherry, the solid hardwood case features only the finest American Cherry and Crotch Mahogany throughout. The gracefully arched split pediment design shows a book matched crotch mahogany field that is framed with an inlaid border of hard maple and ebonized anegre. The featured vine motif combines Avodire, Black Cherry, Magnolia, and Padauk in a brilliant arrangement. A spiral-carved finial rests on a reeded base between the solid cherry crown mouldings.

Anchoring the stately design are two massive 3" solid cherry columns featuring a reeded design, and set against the canted pilasters of the main cabinet. Opening side access doors allow for convenient storage of the winding crank and key. Complimenting the top crown is a finely detailed base, which also features an inlaid panel of rare Crotch Mahogany. Raised corner blocks with crotch mahogany inlay, bridge the sculpted feet with the columns above.

Crafted exclusively for the Vanderbilt Limited Edition, a dial of brushed pewter and bright brass details blend effortlessly to create a truly unique timepiece. The brushed pewter back plate is acid-etched in a magnificent scroll design of bright brass. Aged brass castings adorn the dial center and corners to accentuate the etching details. A unique time ring features Roman numerals framed by a circular arched minute track. Regulated with the 28-day lunar cycle, the functioning moon dial is canvassed on one half with an image of the Biltmore House and the opposite half with an image of Biltmore Gardens. The center dial of your Vanderbilt Limited Edition floor clock includes a placard individually engraved with a sequential number as each clock is crafted. This truly unique heirloom will be limited to only 250 total pieces, coinciding with the number of rooms at Biltmore House.

In keeping with the fine details of the clock dial, brushed pewter weight shells and pendulum showcase the mid-cabinet. Acid-etched and bright brass banding highlight the brushed pewter weights. A large 270mm (10-3/4") diameter pendulum regulates the solid brass German made, precision mechanical movement. At the center of the pendulum bob, a cast ring encircles the acid-etched center for added brilliance. Completing the mid-cabinet is Ridgeway"s exclusive dual lamp touch lighting system to softly illuminate and showcase the double diamond cut v-groove design inside the 1" beveled door glass.

The mechanical cable driven movement rings a choice of three melodies, which are Westminster, St. Michael and Whittington.

A selectable night silence feature comes standard as well.

A free engraved brass plate and a 2-year warranty are included with this clock.

2 year warranty on parts and workmanship.

(Historically, this clock has also been known by other style numbers, including: RID136, CRW82538, RW1276 and 155253)
