Ansonia Clock Co. “La Grande”, ca. 1895.  This exact clock is pictured in Ly, Ansonia Clocks & Watches, on page 630 (#2679).  The tan porcelain case is 21 inches tall with some crazing, but no chips, cracks, or repairs.  The glass is beveled, the porcelain dial decorated and signed with the Ansonia logo in the center; the visible escapement has ruby pallets, the hands are correct.  The signed round, rack and snail movement is running without issue, striking delicately on a small cathedral gong.  A similar example sold at Schmitt Horan in 2022 for $700; it is the only sales record I can find for this rare model.  $400–$700.
