Catalog Description:

Ansonia Clock Co. crystal regulator, "Marquis", ca 1904. This oneis a notch above the average crystal regulator because of the Jeweled Sashand Jeweled Pendulum. Believe me the jewels make a difference. They are like diamonds in that they pick up and reflect light which draws your attention to them and away from the dirty brass case and the used to be "Rich Gold Ornaments".Over half of the rich gold has disappeared and the brass needs to be polishedagain. The 8 day movement is ticking away as I type, strikes half hours andhours on the standing gong. The case is 15.5" high, with 4 beveled glasses.Front glass and one side glass has corner chips. 2 piece porcelain dial hasa hairline on the inner dial, east to west, dirt is what makes you noticeit. As I say repeatedly, would disappear with a cleaning. All jewels intactand retain their bright color. Ly-Ansonia No. 334.
