Antique American Clocks January 2020
75. $400
Seth Thomas “Queen Anne”, ca. 1883. You could get this in cherry, ebony, mahogany, oak,
or walnut, with or without a strike. This one is walnut, with a clear finish that is slightly glossy, and is time-only, eight
days, spring-driven. It is running without issue. The door glass is old, the nickel pendulum bob is damascened, and there
is a beat scale; all the finial knobs are present and there are no issues with the case. The painted dial is original and has
been touched up in a couple of spots; it is a bit faded and a bit warped. The hands are correct. There are remnants of
a black label inside. Another solid clock with little to complain about. Queen Annes are bringing about $450 pretty consistently
these days. $400-$500.
