Description
rosewood, with original Ives tin plate, rolling verge movement. Other than the later hands, and some minor touch up on the dial, this clock is in very good original condition, with a good floral tablet and full label (a bit faded), including the Ives supplied dark blue overpaste for the base of the label. See Ken Robert's book on Ives, pages 299-305 for a full disclosure of patents and development, and page 305, for a picture of the same label and movement as used on this clock. Height 17 inches
