Antique Seth Thomas Chime Mantel Clock

For sale is a Seth Thomas “Adamantine” clock with black and green marbleized finish (Adamantine is Seth Thomas’ patented celluloid finish that was made in many colors to imitate wood and marble).

The clock case is in “as-found” excellent condition. The movement is marked 89T and is called a “ding-dong” because it sounds like a door bell. All reasonable offers accepted.

Seth Thomas Adamantine Sonora Bell Westminster Chime Mantel Clock

This is one of Seth Thomas’s Sonora chime clocks with the adamantine case, and 8 day movement. Cosmetically it’s very good with a some blackened corner dings and maybe a scuff or two, but nothing to point out specifically. Mechanically the clock is mostly untested. Both movements were wound and it was allowed to run while it was being listed. It chimes when the hands were cycled. This is a rare clock and not a run of the mill Sonora. It’s priced to sell so don’t miss it!

Antique Seth Thomas No. 91 Tambour Chime Clock with No. 124 Movement for Repair

Another item from Country Artifacts, Great Northern Liquidation, Springfield, Vermont. 124 chime movement appears to have 5 notes, likely the Westminster tune, but this is not verified.

The clock includes the hands (one detached), pendulum, and key. The glass in front is in good condition, as is the face and case.

SETH THOMAS SONORA CHIME BEEHIVE MANTLE CLOCK 4 RODS MAYLAND CIRCA 1920 With KEY

The Sonora chime line of Seth Thomas clocks are some of the most complex and beautiful sounding clocks the company ever produced. The time keeping mechanism has a few lifter arms that tell the chiming mechanism when to activate the quarter chimes and the hour strike. When working properly, they sound incredible. Offered here is a Seth Thomas Sonora chime mantle clock. I did a lot of research, and the closest I could narrow down the manufacturing date is 1914 – 1921. As I said, I know nothing about clocks, but similar images elsewhere on the web say that S. Eth Thomas clocks with this particular inlaid design in a […]
