It is a beloved companion that radiates warmth and charm throughout your home.Herschede, Gold Medal Winning Clocks Since 1885, Sheffield Model No 230, Starkvile Mississippi. Purely American Made.Franklin "Frank" Herschede was born on July 30, 1857 in Cincinnati, Ohio.In 1873, at the age of 16, he began working as an apprentice watch and clock repairman for Charles Cook.In 1877, he went into business for himself and moved to Vine and 5th Street in Cincinnati. He diversified into jewelry, watches, diamonds, etc., and in 1885, the store moved to larger quarters at the corner of Arcade and Vine.In 1885, noting the success of Walter H. Durfee, Herschede began importing movements and having cases made in a nearby cabinet shop on Front Street in Cincinnati, Ohio. Frank’s clock business expanded to the point that he purchased the cabinet shop in 1900.In 1901, Frank exhibited in the South Carolina and West Indian Exposition at Charleston, South Carolina, where he received a gold medal for his hall clocks. This was the first of several medals earned by the firm.Frank's son, Walter, graduated from high school in 1902, and began work in the cabinet shop. On December 29, 1902 the Herschede Hall Clock Company was incorporated. In that same year, Herschede began to produce his own tubes and install them in his clocks.In 1903 the Herschede Hall Clock Company factory moved from Front Street to 1011-1015 Plum Street.In 1904 the Herschede Hall Clock Company won several medals in the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis in 1904: a gold medal for the best hall clock, a gold medal for the best hall clock cases, and a silver medal for tubular chimes.In 1909, the Herschede Hall Clock Company leased the building next door at 1007-1009 Plum Street to manufacture clock movements. The first movement passed final inspection on January 10, 1911. In 1913, a third melody, “Canterbury Chimes” was added to the Whittington and Westminster chimes. The tune was composed by Charles Eisen, "a gifted American pianist," especially for Herschede. (If you have a Herschede clock with this tune and are a musician, we'd appreciate having the tune so we can add it to our clock chime tunes page in this reference library... contact us and let's talk about how to make this happen... thanks in advance. We'd also like to have a digital recording of this tune.)At the Panama-Pacific International Exposition the firm won two additional major awards: grand prize was presented to the Herschede Hall Clock Company for chime hall clocks and mantel clocks, and a gold medal was awarded for the hall clock cabinets manufactured by the company.By the early 1920's the Herschede Hall Clock Company had opened branch sales offices in New York City, then in Chicago and San Francisco. Frank Herschede died on September 15, 1922, and Walter was named president in January of 1923.In 1925, Walter began to work with Mr. Warren to develop electric movement chime clocks. By April of 1926, the Revere Clock Company came into being.By 1927 the Herschede Hall Clock Company had added a pair of smaller lines of clocks, including a clock (about 6’ in height) and a “petite” clock (generally under 7’ in height). These were produced in the same styles as the larger hall clocks.By 1929 the Herschede Hall Clock Company had some 300 employees, but the Great Depression caused a significant reduction in demand for hall clocks (and just about everything else except jobs)!By 1933 the Herschede Hall Clock Company changed its primary focus on the lower end, introducing an inexpensive line of electric clocks called “Crown Clocks”.On February 4, 1934, Walter's son, Richard Herschede, began working fulltime with his father.The Herschede Hall Clock Company ceased clockmaking during WWII, focusing its manufacturing expertise on observational instruments and optical components for the military. Subsequent to the war, clockmaking resumed, but never regained its pre-war momentum. Eventually, the firm branched out into, of all things, the manufacture of parking meters!In 1952 the Herschede Hall Clock Company began using imported Junghans movements in its non-tubular bell clocks.Then, in 1959, in the midst of extreme economic difficulties, the North Mississippi Industrial Development Association lured the Herschede Hall Clock Company to move its plant to Starkville, Mississippi, with the new factory opening in May of 1960.In 1973, the Herschede Hall Clock Company merged with Howard Furniture and Briarwood Lamps to become Arnold Industries, Inc.On September 23, 1983, Herschede announced a plan to restructure the Herschede Hall Clock division from a manufacturer of the finished clocks to a supplier of quality tubular bell movements to the industry.The firm briefly resumed production of clocks in 1989, making approximately 20 clocks between that year and 1992 under the ownership of Howard W. Klein and Robert Eggering of St. Louis, MO. The firm was then sold to R&M Imports of Waynesville, OH, which manufacturers replacement parts for existing Herschede clocks CONDITIONGood antique condition, wear and distressing commensurate with age and use, light scuffing / marking, working DIMENSIONS24 x 18.5" d x 86" hPAYMENTThe sooner you pay, the sooner you get your item.The Designers Consignment insists on receiving payment within 3 days of your winning bid or Purchase, otherwise we reserve the right to make a second chance offer to the second place bidder or re-list the item.Please let us know if you have any additional questions SHIPPING & HANDLINGWe are currently unable to ship to international US locations.

FINEST Ca. 1900 Tiffany & Co. {Paris} Sterling Silver 1/4 Repeating Strut Clock
eBay TIFFANY & CO. SILVER BELLE ÉPOQUE QUARTER REPEATING STRUT CLOCKdoubtless the finest surviving example of its typeHighly prized clock from my personal collection. Time has come for these horological gems to find new homes. Elegant Tiffany and Co. designs from the turn of the century through the 1980s comprise a significant category of meritorious clocks curated since 1970. Yes; that's me setting the time to welcome 1974.The handsome French hallmarked first standard (.950 purity) silver bezel is beautifully proportioned, displaying jewelry grade finishing. A thick beveled crystal protects the matte gilt dial signed "Tiffany & Co." "8 Days" "France" and "Repeater Quarter Noteworthy aspects of the timepiece include delicate blued steel spade and whip hands, folding silver easel on robust hinge bracket signed "Sterling" "Tiffany & Co." and hallmarked with poincon of Paris silversmith Gerain Amond, and push-repeat steel arm with knurled brass button extending from side of the movement housing. The 8-day running pocket watch ebauche carries Swiss patent No. 7032, assigned on July 19, 1893 to watchmaker and inventor Amédée Pere Douard (1834-1913). The caliber was modified with addition of quarter repeating works by A. Comman of Paris; signing the rear movement plate "Made for Tiffany & Co." Interesting Factoids Dials of 19th century bedside and folding travel clocks were often gilded to reflect limited (candle or oil lamp) light, enabling time to be read at night. Similarly, frames containing important works of art were gilded throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. Around 1910, electricity reached major metropolitan residences. Incandescent bulbs invented by Edison provided light with the flip of a switch. Following WWI, French and Swiss bedside, travel and carriage clocks incorporating very costly repeat functions became obsolete. Few of these horological marvels survive 125 years; even fewer quarter repeating specimens in fine operating order. NOTE: Earlier this year the complex movement was completely disassembled (including removal of mainsprings from barrels), ultrasonically cleaned and rinsed, elements checked for wear, pivots polished, two jewels replaced, the time train mainspring terminal restored, reassembled and lubricated with high-grade Swiss grease and two viscosity oils. Operation was bench tested for weeks and timekeeping regulated. The silver strut, bronze case back, movement housing and dust cover were hand cleaned, polished and lacquer sealed. Dial, hands and crystal were cleaned, and the sterling bezel hand polished to high luster. Meticulous restoration enhanced aesthetics, ensuring reliable mechanical operation for years. Typical labor and materials cost of professionally overhauling a quarter repeating clock of this caliber is $1,200. Please review descriptive information, study the photographs for details and enjoy the movie demonstrating quarter repeating. I'm available to respond to questions / concerns.

Rare Chelsea 8.5” Dial Pedestal Presentation Clock
eBay For sale is an 8.5” dial Chelsea pedestal presentation clock, with original surface dial and re-nickeled case. Original Chelsea sales ledger record indicates the Chelsea movement was sold by Chelsea Clock Company to American Steam Gauge & Valve Company on May 7th, 1913. I added more photos to the listing including the clock next to an iPhone for size perspective - the 8.5” dial diameter is a significant presence Technically therefore we can alternatively refer to this clock as an American Steam Gauge Clock with Chelsea movement. I have seen it listed both ways in the very few examples sold over the years.The Chelsea movement serial number 83324 can be seen in one of the included photos. The time only movement is the marine model, currently keeping accurate time well within Chelsea’s factory standard. A key is included to lock and unlock the hinged bezel. A winding key will also be included.This clock was a presentation piece for Frederick A. Ryer, who in 1911 became the purchasing agent for the Boston & Albany RR ( owned by New York Central RR). The engraved signature is one of the finest we’ve seen for a clock of this era.If the clock needs to be adjusted in the future there is a functioning regulator accessible in the front of the dial.$2400 or best offer, plus $100 for double box packing, shipping via USPS registered insured priority, and tracking, to continental U.S. only. No returns, sale is final.I am a hobbyist, not a dealer, who has spent years putting together a discerning set of the finest Chelsea clocks from the pre-1930 area. Here’s your chance for a charming antique that would make for a wonderful holiday gift, or simply a useful mechanical instrument in your home. (Condition: Pre-Owned)
