Catalog Description:

C.1840, Birge, Mallory and Co., Bristol, Conn., 8-day time/strike triple-decker shelf clock in good+ original condition. There is some veneer loss on the sides of the base, but overall the veneer is in quite good. The center columns retain their original gold leaf but have some gesso damage and the right column has a little piece missing on the base. The gilt eagle has been over-painted with gold paint, but the gilding can be seen under the paint. There is a small bit of the left wing missing. The top and bottom glass and the mirror appear to be original; bottom tablet with some flaking but very nice. The dial is in very good condition, but is missing the small sliding mirror in the half moon aperture. The feet are new; in fact, the top finials may well be two of the original feet. The strap brass movement is signed. Height 38.5 inches
