Antique American Clocks January 2021
151. $1800
Unknown maker miniature pillar & scroll, ca. 1825? A diminutive mahogany case, 24
inches tall with the small center brass urn finial. Good veneer with some splitting on the door. Dial glass appears to
be a replacement, the lower glass is old and may have been out of the door to be repainted; both are held in place with glazer’s points. The dial is iron with original paint in good condition, the hands period. The unsigned brass, solid plate movement is time-and-strike
with a rack and snail strike mechanism; the weight cords are missing and so are the weights, so I can’t tell you if it runs or for
how long (you can buy a set of 30-hour weights for $15 - #907 in Parts). No label and no evidence of a label. This clock
last sold at Cottone’s in 2019 for $2400. $2000-$2400.
