Rare Antique Seth Thomas Adamantine 8 Day Mantle Clock with Winding Key

  
This beautiful antique mantle clock is a true gem for any collector or lover of vintage decor. Made by the renowned brand Seth Thomas, this clock features Adamantine in a striking mahogany color with special rectangular framing on the top, sides, and edges surrounding the round clock face.

It will add a touch of elegance to any room. The clock features Brass Movement #89 and includes a round hinged glass cover for the clock face. The mahogany tone of the Adamantine is beautiful and easy to care for. The glossy finish is very durable in spite of the many years of service and regular dusting.

With its 8-day feature and early 20th-century style, this mantle clock is a rare find. It is perfect for display in any room, and will surely be a conversation starter. Don't miss the chance to own this exquisite piece of history! Included are written set up and operating instructions, an original Seth Thomas 6/4 Clock Key for winding the arbors (w) as well as the tiny adjustment key to regulate speed. This clocks keeps excellent time, strikes on the hour and chimes on the half hour. This is an antique clock, and requires service and cleaning by a clock shop every few years.

You can expect it to take several steps for set up and regulating/coordinating strikes and speed. It also requires a level surface for accurate operation. This particular style is beautiful. My clock repair specialist estimated this clock was manufactured between 1880 to 1920.
