Catalog Description:

C.1825, Eli and Samuel Terry, Plymouth, Conn., pillar and scroll shelf clock in very good restored condition. The case retains original scrolls with a repair to one tip. The tablet of a building with prominent tree is not bad, but not quite typical of what we should see. The movement is a proper Sam'l Terry, easily identifiable, complete and sound. The skirt is old; feet maybe 20 years old. The label is very good, a bit dark but completely legible; pendulum original; hands period; lock original, escutcheon replaced, and the original finials are fantastic. Dial is a bit dirty and dark. There is roughness on the veneer along the left edge of the door where someone has pried the door open a time or 2 (it is a tight fit and there is no door key). For what come up today, a generally good example of a 19th century scroll. Height 31 inches
