Catalog Description:

C.1910, French 8-day time/strike crystal regulator. The dial has the signature: "Theodore B. Starr, New York". This is a very attractive, classically designed model with full Corinthian columns at each corner. The case retains much of its gilding (be sure to clean with solution, not by buffing). The dial has some loss to the painted black numerals. All 4 panes of beveled glass are perfect. The clock leans slightly to the right, and it appears that there is a small piece of debris where the left column joins the bottom capital and that has the whole assembly just slightly out of kilter (certainly correctable on re-assembly). The well made rack striking movement is signed simply "Made in France". Has a super pendulum with gilt bronze mask; mov't seems to be running and striking. Height 10 1/2"
