Catalog Description:
C.1866, Seth Thomas Clock Co., Thomaston, Conn., "Rosewood", 30-hour time/strike column & cornice shelf clock. The rosewood veneered case with a nice old finish is in exceptionally nice condition with a couple of minor veneer chips on the base and just below the right column. The original painted dial, that is very nice for a Seth Thomas, has some flaking along the bottom and around the winding holes. The tablet, which is unusual, appears to be original; no evidence of replacement. The movement is marked "Plymouth Hollow" which would make this a crossover clock, assembled just after the Civil War. It looks as good in person as it does in the foto. Height 25 inches
