2o2.    $25

New Haven “Diadem”, ca. 1900.  An 18-inch-tall case with rosewood veneer and three bell-shaped finials. There is some chipping to the veneer on the left side base, and the finish is dirty and spotted.  The silk-screened glass is original, with a butterfly in the middle.  An old metal dial with some wear and chipping and a signed 30-hour time-and-strike movement that is running aggressively but the strike is frozen.  The alarm is not hooked up.  A nice brass bell and a nice single barrel pendulum, no label.  $25-$50.
