WATERBURY OAK KITCHEN CLOCK "KELSO" MODEL CIRCA 1906

(Item: XC-363)

WATERBURY OAK
MANTEL CLOCK
"KELSO" MODEL

AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE OF A CONNECTICUT KITCHEN CLOCK PRODUCED BY THE WATERBURY CLOCK COMPANY IN 1906. THESE CLOCKS ARE OFTEN CALLED CONNECTICUT SHELF CLOCKS. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY, SINCE I USUALLY SEE THEM IN A LIVING ROOM OR DEN.

THIS WATERBURY CLOCK MODEL IS CALLED THE KELSO.

THE CASE IS SOLID OAK AND IS IN GREAT CONDITION. IT HAS A NICE AMOUNT OF VICTORIAN GINGERBREAD WITH SOME SIMPLE CARVINGS. THE CASE HAS RETAINED IT'S ORIGINAL FINISH.
AS YOU CAN SEE THE GOLD GLASS FRONT PANEL IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND IS ORIGINAL.

THE DIAL IS ALSO ORIGINAL AS IS THE PENDULUM.

THE MOVEMENT IS OF EIGHT DAY'S DURATION. IT STRIKES THE HOUR AND HALF HOUR. THE ALARM ALSO WORKS.

A BEAUTIFUL ADDITION TO A MANTEL, TABLE OR SHELF.
