Sawin, Boston, and in very good original condition. Brooks Palmer attributes this clock to Sawin in his book. The case is in overall very nice condition. The lower mahogany panel has some age cracking and the throat panel has an age crack. The alarm strikes the side of the case to create the sound (sounds like a wood pecker). The weights are not original. This very clock is pictured in "A Treasury of American Clocks" pg. 40. Height 30 inches
