C.1880, Ansonia Clock Co., "Crystal Palace No. 1 Extra", 8-day time/strike mantel clock, in excellent original condition with original Dome (not a new dome, and we left it in a box to avoid damage) Steve acquired this clock from Tran Duy Ly in 1984. The original dial has darkened a little and has some stains and a little wear near the winding holes. The hands are original. The movement is properly signed. The walnut base has its original finish. The upright supporting the movement had a wash coat of shellac a long time ago to freshen the original finish (a little glossier). The statues are original. There is a brass reinforcement strip in the rear, where the upright meets the base to help strengthen it. Height 17.5 inches
