This is one of a series of various miniature case styles based on old designs that included a banjo, steeple, wagon spring, Grandfather, etc. This miniature timepiece is based on a spindle bed design and not any clock. The finish is original but is starting to flake off the spindles. The brass case is tarnished. The dial and hands are original. These timepieces were sold with a 30-hour backwind movement made by Gilbert. There is an old $85 price sticker from H.G. Webber Antiques on the bottom. Height 5.5 inches
