Description
This bracket-style mantel clock is housed in a wooden case with a warm, reddish-brown finish. The case design features a caddy top surmounted by a brass bail handle and rests on a stepped, molded base. The dial features a silver-toned chapter ring with black Roman numerals for the hours and Arabic numerals at the five-minute marks. The center of the dial is a textured gold-toned plate, and the corners are decorated with ornate brass-toned scrollwork spandrels. The dial is marked U.S.A. at the bottom below the 30. Three decorative apertures are present on the lower half of the dial to simulate mechanical winding holes. The clock is powered by a modern battery-operated quartz movement with an electronic speaker for chime functions, similar in design to the Howard Miller Graham Bracket mantel clock. The back of the case features a removable wood panel with a starburst pattern of circular perforations.
