This is a nice condition and rare to find "Adamantine" finish 8 day time and strike mantle clock made by the Seth Thomas Clock Co. In Thomaston, Connecticut right around 1905. This clock features the original signed Seth Thomas 8 day time and strike movement, which has been cleaned and is in good running condition, keeping time and striking properly, counting the hour, i.

1 gong at 1:00, 2 gongs at 2:00, etc. On an antique cathedral gong, and announcing the half hour with a single bell toll. It is a quality movement that, if properly maintained, should last many lifetimes. This simulated French marble case model with marbleized columns set in plated capitals and bases is one that you rarely, if ever, see.

It also has the rare lion's heads that were only used for a year or two. It is a little larger than usual, measuring 18 1/4" wide x 12 3/4" high x 7 1/4 deep. The "Adamantine" finish, which is a patented by Seth Thomas laminate finish from the late 1800's, is in amazing shape for its age.
