RARE Antique Seth Thomas Adamantine Mantel Clock (BEAUTIFUL)

 Antique Seth Thomas Adamantine 8 day time and strike Mantel Clock. This clock was has an original manufacturer stick on the back.  The sticker says 1889 Pat. date.  On the bottom it looks like 190? date? 

Overall very nice condition considering its age.  The case including the legs is 18 3/4 inches wide by 7 1/2 inches deep and stands 11 1/4 inches tall. The deep red original adamantine finish is in very good condition showing only a few minor scratches mainly on top (see pics). It has a "Tiger Maple" type appearence on the top.  The metal decorative pieces including the feet, column holders, and lions heads are all original and show virtually no wear. The 4 beautiful half columns are also in great condition.  I believe it is all original.

I do NOT know if it works, but I believe it should, given the nice complete condition.  If I had a key I would test it, but I do not.  I believe replacement keys are easily found?  Please ask any questions about the clock that you may have.  It really is a BEAUTIFUL clock!

Shipping to lower 48 only please.

Thank you.
