Anglo American Long Drop Wall Clock
A beautiful Anglo American wall clock dating to the 1880’s. These unique clocks were a collaboration of American clockworks and English cases. This great example is crafted in walnut featuring a large round top above a long drop case. Very nicely appointed with carved foliate ornamentation on the sides, and intricate band inlays throughout. It also has a hinged door with a decorative reverse-painted glass panel of black, gold, and a touch of red. Behind the glass panel, one can view a colorful original label.
Within, an 8-day mechanical movement keeps the time and marks the hour with a clear bell strike. The time displays on a painted metal dial with Roman numerals and blued steel trefoil hands. And finally, this terrific clock bears a complete restoration and a one-year warranty.
