High bid $9.00

Status: Sold

Ridgeway grandmother clock in a mahogany-finished case with a broken-arch pediment, turned finial, and glass-front hood opening to reveal a brass and silvered chapter ring dial marked "Ridgeway" and "Tempus Fugit," with pierced brass spandrels and a Roman numeral chapter ring surrounding a hammered brass center. The waist section houses a visible pendulum with a brass bob and triple chain-drive, glimpsed through a glass door, while the case rests on a molded, paneled base with a shaped apron. The chain-driven movement, marked "B122/16," is mounted at the back of the hood with its chime rods and pendulum suspension visible from the rear. Condition shows light finish wear and a small chip to the top edge of the base section as pictured, along with handling marks to the movement consistent with age, but the case remains structurally sound with all glass panels intact. The weights are not included and the movement is untested. Dimensions: 14 1/2"W X 70"H
