GORGEOUS ANTIQUE VICTORIAN GILBERT ANSONIA SHELF MANTLE WOOD CLOCK WITH KEY:
$315

This is a beautiful Ansonia or Gilbert (I have been told both) shelf or mantle clock. The clock has a wooden Renaissance Revival style case with a high scroll carved crest. The crest is centered by a girl metal classical head over the cornice. The cornice has two finials. The clock has an arched glass door with gilt stenciling of flowers and scrolling designs. The dial has a pale pink base color with brown over it, and there are black roman numeral number markers and hands. The door is flanked by tall narrow mirrors with two wood bases in front of them. Each wood base, I believe, is supposed to hold a metal Cupid figure, but we do not have them. The case has curved molded sides with a front panel with a gilt metal scroll type face. The clock is key wind and strikes the hour. The pendulum is a gilt metal with an elegant leaf decoration. The clock has a separate wind alarm. The alarm is set with the center dial in the clock face, and the clock runs well. We estimate is to be from the late 1800's. The back of the clock is marked with a "C" on the back, along with "9E55889" or "9ESS889". It measures 16" wide and 23" tall. It is in very good condition, there are a few tiny spots on the mirrors where the silver has worn off (you have to look closely to notice, it is not distracting at all). The wood is in great shape with no cracking, it just needs a light cleaning. The key shown in the photos is included. This is a gorgeous clock!
