Ansonia Brass & Copper Co. “Gothic Gem”, 1869-1877. This company primarily manufactured copper wares; the clock manufacturing business split off in 1877 to form the second Ansonia Clock Co. The 18.5-inch case is veneered in rosewood with some chipping along the base. Both glasses are old, but the dial glass may have been replaced; the lower tablet appears to be original. The hinge at the top is broken. The dial is a replacement and has been repainted; the hands are replacements as well. The unsigned 8-day time-and-strike movement is very dirty and oily and will not run or strike. There is a tattered label inside that notes the uncommon manufacturer. $50–$150.
