Antique Seth Thomas Chime Clock No. 14 5 Bell Sonora Chime Beehive Shelf Clock

THIS IS A REALLY NICE EXAMPLE OF THE SETH THOMAS CHIME CLOCK NO. 14 SONORA 5 BELL MAHOGANY BEEHIVE CLOCK. THE CLOCK RUNS AND STRIKES PROPERLY AND WE WILL HAVE A LINK TO A VIDEO SO YOU CAN WATCH IT RUN THROUGH THE WESTMINSTER BELL TUNES. THE CLOCK IS DIFFICULT TO BALANCE AND IT ONLY HAS ONE “SWEET SPOT”. IT TOOK US APPROX. 20 MINUTES TO GET THE CLOCK IN BALANCE AND IT NEEDED TO BE REBALANCED WHEN WE MOVED IT FROM THE MANTEL TO A TABLE. ONCE THE MOVEMENT IS IN BEAT, THE CLOCK RUNS SMOOTHLY FOR THE FULL 8 DAYS. THE CASE IS IN GOOD SHAPE AND IT IS DEEPER THAN THE TYPICAL GOTHIC BEEHIVE CLOCK, DO TO THE ADDITIONAL SONORA MOVEMENT. THE FINISH IS NICE, BUT WE DO NOT KNOW IF IT IS ORIGINAL. THERE ARE A FEW TINY SCRATCHES, DINGS AND SCUFFS TO THE EDGES AND SIDES OF THE CASE. THE BACK HAS A FEW PAINT MARKS ALSO. IT STANDS STURDILY ON BRASS BUN FEET. THE BACK DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES WELL. THE CLOCK IS VERY HEAVY, AGAIN DO TO THE FACT THAT IT HAS 2 MOVEMENTS IN IT. THE SILVERED CLOCK DIAL HAS THE APPROPRIATE AGE AND IT IS ORIGINAL. THE BEZEL IS MISSING GLASS. THE PIN-SET HANDS ADVANCE AND INITIATE THE BELL CHIMES EVERY 15 MINUTES. THE CLOCK HAS AN 8 DAY SETH THOMAS MOVEMENT ALONG WITH THE MODEL 90B SONORA CHIME MOVEMENT. THERE ARE 5 BELLS, BUT ONLY 4 HAMMERS. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT THERE WAS A FIFTH HAMMER, AND THE CLOCK SOUNDS TERRIFIC. WE RECORDED THE CLOCK SO THAT YOU CAN HEAR HOW WONDERFUL THE CLOCK SOUNDS EVEN THOUGH THERE IS AN EXTRA BELL. THE CLOCK COMES WITH THE PENDULUM, BUT IT DOES NOT HAVE A KEY. WE TESTED ALL 3 SPRINGS WITH THE SIZE 6 ON A CLOCK STAR KEY. THE SETH THOMAS SONORA, CHIME CLOCK NO. 14 MEASURES : EXTERIOR – 14 3/4 ” TALL X 10 1/4″ WIDE X 7 1/2 DEEP. WE MAKE SURE THAT WE MEASURE TWICE AND DO OUR BEST TO DESCRIBE EACH ITEM.
