<p>[QUOTE="Ghopper1924, post: 507982, member: 5170"]<a href="https://www.antiquers.com/members/afantiques.25/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.antiquers.com/members/afantiques.25/">afantiques</a>, this question has to do with the second picture you posted in the "Hoarder or Storer" thread from a few years ago. You've got a walnut wall clock with marquetry, finials, and a "rolling pin" bottom to the case. My understanding is that this dates to about 1880, that the cases were made in England, and the movement was American (Ansonia?).</p><p><br /></p><p>I've got a clock that's very similar, the main difference being that mine has a "bouquet" of flowers in the crest made of bone or ivory, not sure which.</p><p><br /></p><p>So my question is: Does this type of clock have a name? Also, values for similar clocks with minor differences are all over the place, from $500 U.S. to $1500 U.S. My feeling is the true value is more like the former than the latter.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thoughts?[ATTACH=full]165340[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
[QUOTE="Ghopper1924, post: 507982, member: 5170"][URL='https://www.antiquers.com/members/afantiques.25/']afantiques[/URL], this question has to do with the second picture you posted in the "Hoarder or Storer" thread from a few years ago. You've got a walnut wall clock with marquetry, finials, and a "rolling pin" bottom to the case. My understanding is that this dates to about 1880, that the cases were made in England, and the movement was American (Ansonia?). I've got a clock that's very similar, the main difference being that mine has a "bouquet" of flowers in the crest made of bone or ivory, not sure which. So my question is: Does this type of clock have a name? Also, values for similar clocks with minor differences are all over the place, from $500 U.S. to $1500 U.S. My feeling is the true value is more like the former than the latter.
