About the Seth Thomas “Savoy” Clock
The “Savoy” clock, produced by the renowned Seth Thomas Clock Company around 1909, is a striking example of their craftsmanship during this era. This particular model features an intricately inlaid mahogany case, which has been carefully restored. The restoration process included refinishing the case and polishing the brass work. Notably, the veneer along the bottom edge had raised and was subsequently reglued to maintain its original integrity.
The clock’s dial is porcelain and remains in pristine condition, as does the original set of hands. Standing at a height of 13 inches, this “Savoy” model embodies the elegance and precision that Seth Thomas clocks are known for. Additionally, it bears an unmarked T & S movement and a signed porcelain dial, although its functionality has not been tested. This “Savoy” Balloon Clock is a testament to the enduring quality of Seth Thomas timepieces.
