Richard Swan grandmother rocking ship clock, ca. 1990? A bench-made grandmother (61 inches with the center finial) in a light-stained mahogany with inlaid crossbanding borders on the trunk
door and base, with fans in the corners. A traditional Roxbury pierced fret on top with three tarnished brass finials. The painted dial is signed ‘Richard Swan, W. Bridgewater Mass.’ and features a rocking ship above the dial. There is no other
identifying information or instructions, other than the number ‘3’ stamped into the case below the dial. The spring-driven 8-day,
time, strike, and chime movement was made by Erhard Jauch in Germany; it is running, striking, and chiming (Westminster) on the quarter
hours on 8 rods. No sales records. $250–$500.
