High bid $40.00

Status: Sold

Unmarked maker produced this spring-driven wall clock in a carved mahogany finish case, featuring a crested pediment, turned finials, and a fretwork skirt terminating in a scalloped drop with carved rosette medallions flanking the dial and at the base of the drop. Dial is white with black Roman numeral hours, set within a polished brass bezel surrounded by a floral-engraved brass rosette at center, driven by an eight-day movement. Case wood displays a rich mahogany-toned finish to the front and sides, while the reverse reveals natural pine construction, with a wall-mounting bracket affixed to the rear for hanging. Original wood-shafted pendulum with polished brass bob and fretted brass hanger is included and shown separately. Case shows the crown pediment has separated from the top and will need to be reglued but is present and whole. Dimensions: 16"W X 36"H
