Antique American Clocks
C. & L.C. Ives "Patent Brass Eight Day Clock", 1830-1833.
The case was likely made by Elias Ingraham
with a Joseph Ives 8-day brass movement with roller pinions and pewter winding drums.
The 37.5-inch case has mahogany veneer,
two original glasses, and one original tablet with considerable losses.
The center mirror is a later day replacement; the carved
eagle splat appears to be original to the case.
The large wooden dial is soiled but intact, the hands are likely original, with
a repair to the minute hand.
The early strap-brass movement has a solid escape wheel and large early wheels; it is running and
striking, but the gong is gone, so there is nothing to strike.
There are two period iron weights and a period pendulum bob,
and an excellent label inside.
One tin dust cover over a pulley in back.
A pretty good example, given its age.
