Seth Thomas Clock Co. “Column”, ca. 1870. This miniature
empire clock is 16 inches tall with rosewood veneer, mostly intact, but a few chips along the top and bottom sides. The dial
glass and mirror are original/period, the original contoured dial pan has an old paper dial, faded and worn. The hands are “ST”
hands. The 8-day, time-and-strike movement is spring-driven, signed Plymouth Conn; it is running and striking on a wire gong
and there is an alarm hooked up which strikes on an iron bell. The alarm was not tested. There is a good but yellowed
Thomaston label inside. A classic model. $100–$200.
