Here is a very nice condition “Adamantine” finish 8 day time and strike mantle clock made by the Seth Thomas Clock Co. In Thomaston, Connecticut during the early 1900’s. This clock is in a walnut woodgrain or brown marble style Adamantine finish. The brass bezel and painted dial assembly is in very nice condition. This clock features a signed Seth Thomas #89 series movement, which is in good running condition, keeping time and striking properly, counting the hour, i. 1 gong at 1:00, 2 gongs at 2:00, etc. And announcing the half hour with a single toll. It is a quality movement that, if properly maintained, should last many lifetimes. The “Adamantine” finish, which is a patented laminate finish from the late 1800’s, is also quite nice. Overall it is a great looking clock. With all adamantime clocks you will notice a little shrinkage at the corners and edges, and some cracking here and there, minor touch-ups, as well as minor dings, dents and scuffs, which is the nature of the Adamantine finish. It is a thin laminate over soft wood, similar to our plastic, and so shrinks, cracks and dents fairly easily with just normal use over time, but as seen in the pictures, this is in amzing conditon. It is complete with a key and pendulum and is ready to place up on the mantle and enjoy. The measurements are 16 ¼” wide x 9 ½” high x 7 deep. This helps ensure that the new owner will have a satisfying experience. Be very sure to save all packaging material if there is a problem.
