23 October 2024
8-day MOP Iron case shelf clock. The case is in generally good unrestored condition, some rust on right side. Retains most of its Mother-of-pearl inlay with fading of the gold work under a layer of alligatored finish. The original dial appears to have been painted between the numbers and the center at some point in its life. The clock has a full, but very dark label . The original movement is signed "Brewster and Ingrahams" and is an early type with ribbed front plate. Photo was taken without flash and pendulum is not showing. Height 14"
