The beautiful old clock is from the early 1900's, possibly ca. 1905. It has an authentic New Haven Clock Co. brass clock movement and it is signed as such on the movement itself. The case I do not recognize and the name of the clock on the tag at the rear of the clock is not readable so I cannot exactly pinpoint the year of manufacture for this clock.
The brass movement has been checked and serviced and the clock is running perfectly and keeping good time. This is a chiming/striking clock that counts the hour every hour at the top of the hour. It also strikes the half hour with one chime.
The winding key comes with the clock and when the mainsprings are fully wound, the clock will run for approximately 8 days. These clocks were always wound on the same day of the week--usually on Sundays.
The clock case is in great condition with the normal wear for over 100 years. There are not broken pieces that I can find.
This clock measures 22 inches tall by 14 inches wide and 5 inches deep at the base.
The front door has some reverse artwork in gold. It is a wonderful pattern that enhances the appearance of the clock. The pendulum also appears to be original with the clock--very ornate and beautiful. |
