Ansonia Clock Co. “Register”, ca. 1901.  ‘Lovely’ seems inadequate to describe this 11-inch tall by 13-inch-wide Ruby (you thought it was plum) porcelain clock.  I see no chips or cracks but there is some crazing throughout; the gilding is strong.  The glass is beveled, the signed dial is porcelain with no defects, the hands are correct, and there is a visible escapement with steel pallets.  The 8-day, time and half-hour strike movement is running and striking on a cathedral gong.   A very similar example sold at Tom Harris in 2020 for $190. $150–$250.
