This exquisite Tiffany & Co (Walter Durfee?) Grandfather 9 tube clock from the 19th century is a timeless piece of art that will add a touch of elegance to any room. Crafted with the finest mahogany or perhaps oak not entirely certain, this antique clock boasts a stunning brown color that exudes sophistication and class. Its tube shape and longcase design make it a unique and impressive addition to any clock collection. This clock has been meticulously crafted, showcasing the expertise of its maker and the quality of the materials used. With its classic design and timeless appeal, it is sure to be a conversation starter and a treasured addition to any home.There are Walter Durfee stamps on the tubes but I have found no other markings. But the photos of the mechanism are consistent with other Walter Durfee cloocks on the internet.Walter Durfee was an American clockmaker who is known for his contribution to the development of the modern grandfather clock. He was born on March 23, 1857, in Providence, Rhode Island 1. Durfee started his business by selling antiques and later began to purchase tall case clocks, which we now call grandfather clocks 1. He claimed to have bought and sold over 400 tall case clocks in his first 8 years in business 1. By mid-1880, Durfee decided to purchase new English bracket clocks and resell them in his antique shop in Providence, Rhode Island 1. It was from this venture that Walter Durfee met the fine quality clock manufacturer in London of Jennens and Sons 1. Jennens and Sons sold their clocks directly to the public but also through leading jewelry stores in London, Liverpool, Edinburgh, Glasgow, New York, and Boston 1. Durfee made an arrangement with JJ Elliott Ltd. to build a 3 weight clock with quarter-hour chime and hour strike on the “new” tubular chimes. In 1887, Walter Durfee received his first 9 tube grandfather clock. He sold it for $500 1. By 1890, Walter Durfee had created a true ‘fad’ for the high-end ‘hall clocks’. Everyone who had the money wanted one of his 9 tube chiming clocks This clock belonged to my wife's grandmother and I have included a handwritten note from her. She was Ruth Baker and she the sister of James A Baker, former secretary of state of the US. She inherited the clock from her father James Addison Baker Senior son of James Addison. Regardless it is a very impressive clock and I have enjoyed having it in our house as a center piece in our formal entry. It is beautifully hand carved in Mahogany and from my research appears to be one of a kind. The clock is nearly 100 inches tall or approximately 8 feet tall. THE CLOCK IS NOT WORKING. But is very similar to this other EBAY listing at $14,000:EBAY item # 296099406072 I had it looked at for repair of the cable but they were not able to complete the repair at our house so we are on a waiting list and have decided to sell as is. One of the photos attached shows an estimate for complete overhaul of the clock for $2,645 plus tax. The clock's case is in excellent condition but missing the finials. I added some more pictures of the movement. They indicated the clock is from the late 1800s. May be a Walter Durfee clock as noted in notes from my mother in law. If anyone has suggestions for confirming please let me know. The clock company representative it could sell for approximately $25K if fully refurbished. Clock is being SOLD AS IS. NO RETURNS. Will send more pictures to anyone seriously interested.Due to scams we have heard about where buyers claim they never received the correct item even when tracking is provided the buyer will need to arrange for the clock to be picked up at our house after we have ensured payment. Payment may be made at the time of pick up or by wire. We are willing to provide whatever reassurances the buyer requires as we are not scammers. Open to discussion in order to ensure both parties are protected. (Condition: Pre-Owned)
