Atkins Clock Co. “Octagon Top”, ca. 1875. A
10-inch miniature with good rosewood veneer and a light patina. I think the glasses have been replaced, but the dial glass is
old and the lower glass shows a gilt image of a cannon and cannon balls draped with an American flag. The dial has been repainted,
the hands are acceptable. The small, 30-hour, time-only movement is unsigned but was designed by the Atkins Clock Co. It is running strongly. There is a good label inside. AAC has sold several of this model in the last several years, most
recently for $175. $75–$200.
