Waterbury Clock Co. English market clock, ca. 1890.  The 39-inch walnut case is in the typical English style with extensive marqueterie and a fretted screen inside the case.  Some held a mirror on the back wall in front of the pendulum. This case is in better than average shape, with no losses to the inlay that I can see.  The red cloth behind the fretwork is a replacement; the paper dial is signed Waterbury but not original.  The 8-day, time-and-strike movement is also signed Waterbury and is running and striking on the brass bell.  The door glass is original.  Note the inlay on the base (and the missing right finial tip).  $125-$175/.
