132.            $50

Jerome & Co. octagon-top cottage, ca. 1860.  A 16-inch shelf clock with clean rosewood veneer with a couple of nicks and a light patina.  Both glasses are original with their gutta percha inserts and a lovely pastoral image of two girls, sheep, and a boater lurking offshore.  The flat metal dial has been repainted, the hands are period and appropriate, and the unsigned 8-day, time-and-strike movement is running and striking on a wire gong.  Dark, patterned wallpaper inside and a card label on the back of the door, “Pendulum Clocks”.  Nothing not to like here.  $50–$150.
