Catalog Description:

C.1850, Brewster and Ingrahams, Bristol, CT, 8-day Round Gothic or "beehive" clock. Refinished rosewood veneered case is in excellent condition. Ivory door escutcheon is intact. Original ribbed plate movement (which will advance strike by pulling hammer to left) is stamped with firm's name. Painted zinc dial with raised chapter has typical chips around perimeter and around hand shaft hole. Dial does not appear to have been signed. The time keyhole is slightly enlarged, but screw holes in dial plate match those in the case, so dial appears to be original to the clock. Hour hand is original and minute hand is an old replacement. Good intact label. Decalcomania glass in lower door has flaking and is a period glass, but has come from another clock as it is trimmed on right side making center of design off center. Height 18.75 inches.
