Sold on 2/25/1895 to Carl Suchy & Söhne company in Prague for 279 Marks. 
Carl Suchy (1796-1866) received his master’s training from Franz Lehner, a well known maker of bracket clocks in the Egerland region.
He expanded his business in 1838 and employed a staff of 35. In recognition of his services Suchy received a royal warrant and was soon made purveyor to the imperial and royal court.
He also won a number of decorations at exhibitions. Suchy counted not only the bourgeoisie but also members of the aristocracy and of the imperial court amongst his clientele.
