Antique American Clocks
Henry Loomis reeded column & splat, 1830-1835.
A second example from this rare maker, this
one in an unusual style with reeded mahogany columns and a jester-style mahogany splat on the 30-inch case.
The finish on this
clock is absolutely gorgeous.
The dial glass is a replacement, the tablet original. The dial and hands are also likely original.
The 30-hour wooden movement is running and striking perfectly, with two iron weights and an old pendulum bob.
There is a good
label inside.
This clock sold at Fontaine's in Pittsfield MA in 2012 for $3000.
$750-$2500.
