Catalog Description:
C.1880, Ansonia, "Queen Elizabeth", in walnut, as-found with restorations. The entire bottom and all of the finials have been replaced and the workman had a foto but no pattern to work from, so they are only approximate representations. The center portion, door, movement, dial and pendulum are original (and the main top). The original paper dial has some stains and the "A" logo is worn off; manufacturing info along bottom margin is intact. These normally bring $1000 in original condition, so our estimate reflects the necessary restorations. Height 37 inches
