J. C. Brown, Forestville, Conn., ripple front steeple clock in a rosewood veneer case with a spring driven, 8 days, time and strike movement, c1848. The rosewood veneered case is in very good condition with 2 very small veneer chips on the top of the case. There is some original finish with some later addition to the finish. The fleur de lis hands are correct for this clock. The movement is signed. The original painted dial has some loss at the screw holes, winding holes and the center post. There is a nice interior label. The upper door glass is a later replacement. The lower etched glass is original and the case still has its white door knob. Ht 20".
