Description

The only things that keep this from being outstanding are a re-plated pendulum bob and the incorrect pulley (looks fine as-is, but we are being particular here). The original finish is intact with great patina, some minor scrapes here and there if you really look hard, also some dry splits in door; retains a wonderful burled panel in the case back, and original balls are still on top. The original dial, hands and weight are fine. Also with an old jeweler's label from Flint, Michigan. For additional details, see Tran Duy Ly's book titled Gilbert Clocks (1998), page 135. This clock is sure to attract extra attention. Height 53 inches
