Seth Thomas "Regulator No. 2", ca. 1890-1920.
Cherry or mahogany?
I struggled with that because
the finish is dark and almost certainly original and very crusty, but I have settled on mahogany.
The temptation to thoroughly
clean this 36-inch case will be strong but you should probably resist; original examples in this good a condition do not come along
There is some white paint spatter on the right side.
Both glasses are old, the dial is either an old repaint or
perhaps a 1920's issue.
The 8-day time-only movement is signed and running just fine; the pendulum stick, bob, and weight all
look original.
A white ST label inside.
Mahogany is only slightly more common that cherry for this model, and both
are hard to find.
