E. Terry & Sons pillar & scroll, 1823-1831. Perhaps the most prolific producers of pillar & scroll clocks.  The 31-inch clock has good mahogany veneer with a glossy finish.  The brass urn finials are on a wood post, a metal post, and a screw.  The skirt looks original but one foot has been replaced; there are some veneer repairs to the divider on the door.  Both glasses are old replacements, the tablet a repaint. The wooden dial is clean and colorful, possibly renumbered, but unfortunately is not a proper dial for this model, as it has filled and redrilled winding holes.  A new dial or a repaint could fix that.  The wooden 30-hour time-and-strike movement will not run or strike.  There are two period weights, a small brass bob, a winder, and a key for the working door latch.  There is a good label inside.  $100–$200.
