Antique American Clocks
Jerome & Co. "Round-top", ca. 1860.
A third style of Jerome shelf clocks, this one 14.5 inches
tall in a rounded form with rosewood veneer and the trademark black edge trim.
A full glass door with a full gutta percha insert,
this one with a gold-framed picture of a harbor fortification and a sail boat in a bay.
The gutta percha is without cracks and
the gold edging is still bright.
The repainted dial sits in a wooden dial board; there is a large 8-day time-and-strike unsigned
movement, striking on a wire gong.
There is a fancy New Haven pendulum bob, the usual label on the back of the door, and wall
paper inside the case.
There is an old hook-clasp on the side of the door.
Another nice example in this Jerome series
of shelf clocks.
