Manufactured by

Seth Thomas Clock Company

Circa 1900

Model Name " Texel " It is as shown in the Seth Thomas Tran Duy Ly Book

Seth Thomas stamped dial with brass trim rings and beaded brass bezel

Adamantine finish is in very good condition and the pictures support this statement

Original bronze patina on the column caps and fancy Seth Thomas feet

Bronze Sphinx Heads on the sides

Unusual and seldom seen Seth Thomas model and it has been well cared for and it shows in the adamantine as the green sandstone marbleized trim looks fantastic on this clock

This clock also has the sandstone and green marbleized trim that highlights the black adamantine extremely well. This clock also has the green marbleized trim on the top of the clock also

Also this clock retains its original back door. The movement retains the Seth Thomas Made in America and the movement model # 4 1/2. This movement has been ultrasonically cleaned and oiled. This movement is a spring wound eight day time & strike movement that announces the half hour on a brass cup bell and proceeds to count the hour on a good sounding cathedral gong. The movement is in very good operating condition it is keeping good time and striking correctly.

This clock measures 16 1/2 inches in length by 11 inches in height

This clock retains its original cast iron pendulum and the correct winding key for the clock

This clock has seen very good care over its lifetime there is no missing trim or broken pieces on the clock there is the normal wear you would expect after 110 years.

This is a very attractive Seth Thomas clock that will keep getting compliments over and over, because of its classic engineering design that has never gone out of style

I started working on clocks in 1971 when I was in Junior High School I have a great passion for these old clocks and have always shopped for the best in quality and originality. I buy clock collections and I am able to offer very nice clocks from these collections plus my own personal collection as well. My clocks are some of the best being offered on ebay.

I also sell parts, restoration clocks and these will be recognized in this manner.
