Today for your consideration is this very rare Ansonia shelf clock from early 1900’s. Case is made from multi colored brass. Hand painted porcelain dial in very nice condition but needs some cleaning on few edge spots. Original pendulum and winding key. Clock legs needs to be adjusted because is not seating straight and waboling a little. This might be the reason why is only working for short period of time. Definitely needs to be leveled or properly positioned. Striking mechanism working fine without any issues noticed. There is small dent front lower right and as pictured and needs to be punched out if decided. It is possible that originally clock case had some gilding but disintegrated over time. Clock is approximately 8 3/4 inches tall, 8 3/4 inches wide and 4 3/4 inches deep. Based on information provided by previous owner this is very rare Ansonia clock and hard to find. Great addition to your collection. Please check detailed pictures because they can describe better than I can.

Rare piece can’t find a example anywhere online. Highly doubt they even award these anymore as for how the company is doing. Comes with original box and a thank you note signed by the top brass of the company at that time.
