Catalog Description:
C.1895, Seth Thomas Clock Co., Queen Anne, 8-day time/strike wall clock, case incomplete. The walnut case is in good condition with original finish, however, the clock must have fallen at one time and damaged the lower bracket, which is now missing, but the bottom trim molding was saved and placed back on the case. This clock was originally exported to England and the painted dial is signed "Barry and Sons, Cardiff". The clock has a beautiful nickel-plated damascened pendulum. This example has an early wooden beat indicator. There is a very nice label in the bottom of the case. If this clock had retained its original bracket it would have been worth $1,000 and the estimate reflects the condition. Height 31.75" $500-$700
