C.1848, Chauncey Boardman, Bristol, Conn, Triple fusee steeple clock.

23 October 2024
This is a 30 hour movement unique to Bristol, with the alarm between the plates, bottom center, and with a third fusee cone mounted to the underside of the seatboard. The front of the clock has had several veneer repairs that show under a bright light, and a minor bubble along the lower right margin. Sides of the clock retain original finish and the original Fenn tablet of a balloonist is marvelous. Also has a good label. Despite the veneer repairs, this is an uncommon steeple that presents itself quite well. Height 19 inches
