F. Kroeber, unusual and stylish mantle clock.

22 inch walnut case is typical Kroeber. Their cases and accessories were always a notch above most other makers. This one has a few added features, like inlay, great signed brass pendulum with beveled glass, and a slow-fast regulator. There is a metal bust on top and a large piece of silver inlay on each side of the case. A label on the back is so dark I can't read the name of this model, but I can read "Kroeber". Case needs some glue in a place or two. Dial is surely a replacement. 8 day movement is signed, strikes a brass bell.
