Antique American Clocks
Ansonia Brass & Copper Co. "Large Gothic Gem", 1869-1877.
The rosewood veneer on this 18.5-inch
clock is practically perfect.
The glasses are original, the dial glass held in with putty, the lower glass has yellowed perhaps
due to a lacquer coating to preserve the reverse-painted image.
The paint on the metal dial is old as well; the 8-day time-and-strike
movement is not signed that I can see.
It is running and striking as expected.
There is a good label inside.
nice example.
