A vintage Mid-Century Modern pendulum table or chimney clock by the Dutch clockmaker Orfac.
A timeless design with sculptural presence. The warm wood, brass details and clean form make this piece a striking example of mid-20th century European clockmaking.
Crafted with a solid wooden case and convex glass framed in brass, this clock features a white dial with brass numerals and hands, supported on elegant brass feet. A nice detail is the use of two different types of wood on the front.
A brass pendulum and mechanical movement by FHS (Franz Hermle & Sohns, Germany) drives the timekeeping and striking mechanism, wound with the included key. The gentle chiming marks the half and full hours, typical of classic mantle clocks.

Condition
This clock is in excellent vintage condition with minor signs of age and use, including patina on the brass and subtle surface wear to the wood. The top shows some dryness with light craquelé. The hammer of the front gong bar is not functioning correctly; it does produce sound but is out of tune and can likely be easily adjusted by a clockmaker.
Shipping may cause the clock to be off and it may be necessary to have it set by a clockmaker.
A distinguished decorative and functional accent for living rooms or studies, ideal for placement on mantelpieces or sideboards.
