Birge & Fuller sleigh-front triple decker, 1844-1848. The successful partnership ended with Thomas
Fuller’s death in 1848. This is a very nice example of their work, with flame mahogany columns on each side, a wooden dial,
and a nice middle tablet that has retained much of the decoration but lost most of the backing. The lower tablet is a very nice
replacement and complements the middle tablet. The dial glass is also old. The signed strap-brass 8-day movement is running
without issue. The weights are newer replacements. There is a pretty good label inside with the steam train The Breeze carrying
passengers across the countryside. $250-$350.
