Sessions enameled iron mantel, ca. 1900.  Sessions made very few enameled iron mantel clocks and this one is not shown in Ly’s book on Sessions clocks; there is no label on the case, but the movement is signed Sessions.  It may be a replacement.  The case has been nicely refinished, with new black lacquer, gilt incising, new faux marble columns and a new paper dial and brass bezel with a thick beveled glass (with an edge chip).  The dial pan has come loose from the bezel. The movement is running and striking.  $50-$150.
