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.
