Description

E. Terry & Sons pillar & scroll, 1823-1831. A fourth example of this model, also restored by Jeff Villet. Polished mahogany veneer, 31 inches tall with the brass urn finials on steel posts; no repairs to the case, including the scroll tips, that I can discern. The dial glass is original, the lower glass modern. The wooden dial is clean with good spandrel decorations and proper period hands. The wooden 30-hour, time-and-strike movement is running and striking as expected on an iron bell with two period weights and an old pendulum bob. A good label inside, new tin dust covers over the pulleys, and a working door lock and key. Beautiful, at a great price. $400–$500.
