Late 19th Century Stained Wood Drop Octagon Wall Clock
Description
An antique drop octagon wall clock, dating from the late 19th or early 20th century. The clock features an octagonal head housing a circular dial with black Roman numeral hour markers and a simple outer minute track. The dial is equipped with two winding holes, indicating a mechanical twin-train movement, typically an eight-day striking mechanism. It is fitted with steel spade-style hands. The wooden case, likely featuring a mahogany or rosewood veneer, includes a rectangular drop trunk with a glazed door. The glass is decorated with a gilt transfer-printed oval frame. The dial is protected by a hinged wooden bezel. This style is frequently referred to as a schoolhouse or office regulator clock.
