Antique American Clocks
Ansonia Clock Co. "Queen Anne", ca 1901.
This is a pretty clock, don't you think?
It's the Queen Anne, in oak (the only way it came), with a clean finish and a medium oak stain on the 40-inch case.
This example
is a time and half-hour strike, on a cathedral gong that sounds deep and rich.
The 8-day movement is a typical Ansonia workhorse,
signed, with an Ansonia gong mount.
The dial is glossy paper, the hands are correct, and the door glass is old.
running and striking as expected.
I don't see anything not to like, other than the lack of a label.
Horton's sold one
in 2018 for $449.
