Status: Sold

E. Ingraham Company of Bristol, Connecticut manufactured this walnut parlor clock, featuring a distinctive arched pediment topped with a turned wooden finial and flanked by a pair of turned columns capped with gilt lion head medallions. Its cream-colored dial displays Roman numerals surrounding an open escapement visible at center, and is signed beneath the numerals "Manufactured by the E. Ingraham Co., Bristol, Conn., U.S.A." Lower door glass retains its original reverse-painted gilt decoration in a floral and urn motif, and the case sits on a molded plinth base with a decorative brass plate with a centered level window visible - the level is in working condition as well. Also includes a brass winding key that turns accordingly. The movement keeps time and chimes on the hour and half hour. The top finial is not original and not the same color. On the right side of the crown has a crack that has been secured as well as the bottom left side of the crown. Dimensions: 14"W X 25 1/2"H
