It’s ticking (maybe just a little fast) with a light push to the pendulum and the bell dings too. No wind up key included. A classic Seth Thomas Adamantine mantel clock in the popular temple-style case with green faux-marble (adamantine celluloid) finish and paired cream-colored marble columns – one of the most iconic American shelf clock designs of the late Victorian and Edwardian era, made at the Seth Thomas factory in Thomaston, Connecticut (established 1813). Brand: Seth Thomas – dial reads Made by Seth Thomas in U. Adamantine celluloid finish in deep green with white veining over wood case. Six decorative cream marble-finish columns flanking the dial. Ornate brass feet with scroll detail, brass dial surround with egg-and-dart bezel. Original paper dial with Arabic numerals. 8-day brass spring-driven movement with bell strike, pendulum and coiled gong present. Original paper directions label still adhered to rear of case (torn but legible). Part label number visible: 295-C M. The case shows expected age and honest wear: the adamantine finish has surface crazing, chips, and losses consistent with 120+ years of display; the rear of the case is dusty and has some white residue. The movement is present and appears intact with all visible gears, the bell, pendulum bob, and coil spring, but has not been tested and should be serviced by a clockmaker before use. Overall a handsome, displayable example of a sought-after American antique clock.

This Seth Thomas Chicago Shelf clock is in excellent condition. The clock’s exterior has been beautifully restored and looks excellent. The only issue is that when the door closes and is locked, there is a gap at the top of the clock (See HD pictures). We attempted multiple adjustments to fix this, but we were unsuccessful. The clock would have been made around the late 1800s. The movement has been properly cleaned and oiled and keeps very good time. The clock chimes on the hour. As you will notice in the video, the chimes do not sound nice. This is because back in this time period, most homes only had one clock. So the goal wasn’t to make a pretty sound, the goal was for this sound to be loud and heard throughout the whole house. So if you want a clock that makes a nice chiming sound, this is NOT the clock for you. The alarm mechanism does work, though I did not include that in the video. Setting the alarm on these antique clocks is a complicated process. Please inspect all the HD pictures closely.
