The clockmaker Franz Xaver Liebherr I. was born in Constance in 1725 and died in Immenstadt in 1802. He probably completed his apprenticeship with Jerg Mahler or his son Franz Joseph Mahler I. and further refined and perfected his skills in the course of his travelling years. Possibly he even stayed at the famous automaton designer Jaquet Droz's workshop in French-speaking Switzerland. In 1766, he was granted citizenship in Immenstadt (Allgäu). Commissioned by the Imperial Abbot of Ottobeuren, Honorat Göhl, he created a clock for the towers of the basilica in 1771 and the famous convent clock in 1773. In addition to these and other tower clocks, Liebherr also created outstanding "Telleruhren" (plate clocks) and commode clocks such as this one, which may have originally been made for a monastic client as well. Besides the knowledge that he repeatedly worked for ecclesial clients, the high quality as well as the Alpha & Omega on the small key of the frontal key suggest such a connection.
Case: - Overall in typical condition for its age, with signs of age and use such as rubbing of the frame as well as minor bumps on it and fine scratches. - The paint in the area of the lock of the front door somewhat fragile and loose. - The standing surface for the work inside with more obvious rubbing and slight loss of colour due to the work being set. - The back wall with a large vertical drying crack and some bumps on the inside. - The mounted pilaster on the right rear side broken once and then screwed back in place. - The two case keys present. - Original ratchet key and the pendulum present. - The movement and musical mechanism runs.
