H. J. DaviessÕ advertised his clocks as "Black Walnut Clocks" and "Visible Pendulum, with Glass Shade" (Crystal Palace) clocks. Well this one isnÕt walnut, but oak. Beautifully restored (or original) condition. I donÕt think thegreen could have been restored on the dial surround and statue bases. Thewhole clock looks like it has been in a sealed container since 1880. Another of the MillerÕs almost perfect clocks. It is 8 day, bell strike, 17-1/2 incheshigh with the glass dome. I wonÕt bore you with any more sales pitch exceptto say I have never seen or had better. Ly-Ansonia, pages 91-95.
