Chauncey Ives pillar & scroll, 1824-1830.  One of six Ives brothers, his most famous brother being Joseph.  All six made clocks.  This pillar & scroll is notable for its originality – with the possible exception of the dial glass, which may be a very old replacement, and the pendulum bob.  The 28-inch mahogany case has been cleaned and is without repairs or losses that I can see; this includes the feet and scroll-top.  The tablet has been touched up very well, the dial board is clean and simple.  The 30-hour wood movement will run for a few minutes, I didn’t push it.  There is a good label inside, and three brass urns on wooden posts.  A very nice example.  $400-$600.
