Atkins, Porter & Co. reverse-OG cornice
top, 1840-1846. A 23.25-inch case veneered in mahogany with a clean finish. The OG curves are reversed from the usual
format, giving the clock a unique look. The dial glass is original, the mirror may be as well. The dial is badly stained
with chipping; the hands are period and appropriate. The 30-hour brass time-and-strike movement is unsigned; it is unusual for
the time as it uses an unusual strike chain configuration and strikes on the half-hour as well as counts the hours. It is running
and striking on the wire gong. Two period 30-hour weights and a decent label inside. $100–$200.
