Chelsea (Tiffany) Willard banjo clock, without a movement.

23 October 2024
These were made in 2 sizes, full and 3/4. This is the 3/4 size, 32 inches high, 6 inch painted metal dial, original throat panel, lower mirror is a replacement. Came with 3 types of Chelsea movements, ships bell, hour and half hour strike, or non strike. This would probably have had the non strike movement. Case wood is mahogany, never has been cleaned. Other than no movement, which is pretty easy to find, the mirror is the only replaced part. The dial is signed, "Tiffany & Co. New York". Ly-Clocks, Volume 1, page 53; and Ly-American, Volume 2, page 68.
