Silas B. Terry, Terryville, Conn., oversize balance wheel Sharp Gothic clock with 30 hours, time and strike, fusee movement utilizing Eli Terry's unique 1845 patent balance wheel escapement, in a rosewood veneered case, c1845. The case retains original finish with some veneer issues along the base. The painted wooden dial is in very good condition but has a small support piece added on the left side of the dial. The hour and minute hands are original, but the seconds hand is probably an appropriate replacement. The top door glass and the Fenn stenciled tablet are original.
