Catalog Description:
C.1880, Ansonia Clock Co., "Monarch" 8-day time/strike mantel clock in as found, from storage, needing restoration. The original paper dial has turned rather dark from age. The tablet, hands and pendulum are original. The beat scale has some minor paint flaking. The clock retains part of the original top finial with the pan and center finial, but the small turned base and two side arms that attach to the finial are missing. There are other small chips of wood here and there; the faux graining on the drawer and curved panels will need restoration as it is dark and partly missing. Still has lots of potential. Height 24.5 inches
