| sw01273: A Mahogany Banjo Clock, New England, c.1820 This clock is in original untouched condition. It came out of a local estate sale and has its first glasses and untouched grunge surface on all mahogany parts, including its original finial. It was obviously used and cared for, as we found two cards by local Rhode Island clockmakers who serviced it, and were based where the estate sale took place in Rhode Island. |
| sw00420: Victorian Black Marble Three-piece Mantel Clock with Mounts, c.1880 The marble is in perfect condition, as is the rest of this clock, a key element of importance to us in selecting any clock in our collection. The most notable aspect to us is the Henry T. Brown, Providence engraved mark on the dial. They were an earlier clock retailer, ultimately part of the Tilden-Thurber company, where our galleries are currently located. |
| sw00014: French Restoration Gilt Bronze mantel Clock, early 19th century. The quality of the castings are of the highest standard, the modeling of the statue is well balanced and is embellished with additional elements throughout. i.e. books, sceptre. This clock retains its original gold wash surface with no missing elements. |
| sw00618: Giltwood Over-mantel Clock with Urns and Statue, Continental, c.1800 This clock is extremely well carved, retaining all its original elements, i.e. the detachable urns and statue. The face is porcelain with original hands and has a silk suspension pendulum. This clock has been regold-leafed and is brilliant. What sets this clock apart is the carving, which is a tour de force of the best. Please enjoy the close-ups. |
| sw00419: Victorian Variegated Marble Mantel Clock with Figural Mounts, c.1880-90 The marble in this clock is all in perfect condition, as are all other elements, and is of striking quality. The clock, as a whole, is visually monumental and the movement is a French barrel type, the best quality in a commercial timepiece at the time. |
| sw00016: Onyx & Marble Art Deco Clock. Finished on all sides, the stone quality and craftsmanship are of top rank. |
| sw01304: A Cherry Queen Anne Tall Case Clock with Silver Dial, Rhode Island, Squire Millard, c.1750 This is a tall country clock was produced by Squire Millard, whose listing indicates he fought in the revolutionary war. The dial is a beautifully-engraved silver over brass, and indicates Millard resided in Warwick, which is about 10 miles South of Providence, RI.
