The Swiss clock my family owns (end of 19th century or beginning of 20th century). Made by legendary ‘Russian Swiss’ company Henry Moser & Cie., which was the official Supplier of the Imperial Court. [OC] [2156x2975]

It was made by the legendary ‘Russian Swiss’ company Henry Moser & Cie founded by Johann Heinrich Moser in Le Locle, Switzerland. In sending their products to Russia, the company found a very large and lucrative sales market, and so all production was focused on the Russian market. Although the founder, Henry Moser, died in 1875, the success of his company was not over. Taking advantage of the patronage of Empress Alexandra Feodorovna, in 1913 Moser’s company became the official Supplier of the Imperial Court. A historical inscription appeared on the advertisements by the company that read: Suppler of Her Majesty Empress Alexandra Feodorovna”. https://german242.com/en/history-of-henry-moser-co-henry-moser-cie/
