Black Mantel Clock

When my great grandmother passed away she gave the clock to my grandfather. The clock was left to me because I always admired it growning up and loved the chime.

I know knowing about the clock, but I have seen a few that look close to the same.

Any help identifying the clock would be great.

Antique Ingraham Mantel Clock
by: Anonymous

This is definitely not a Seth Thomas or Gilbert. It is an Ingraham. I have that exact model and have owned and enjoyed it for years.

I have same clock

I have the same clock as you and I am also trying to find information on it. Well I should say that from the picture it looks like the exact same clock. I was able to read some of the information on mine and it said its a WmL Gilbert clock Co. of Winstead Conn., U.S.A. , 1903, Patent April 1898. I hope that may help you and I would be much obliged if you could pass along any info you may find about the clock and I will do the same for you. I have a posting on here Labeled Looking for info on my old clock.

This clock is defiently a E. Ingraham mantle clock, you can be sure for yourself by reading the makers name, it is always printed under the 6 on paper dials and this clock has the fast slow regulator wheel between the handshaft and 12 oclock, the E. Ingraham is the only mantle clock that has or had this regulator wheel.

If it is a Seth Thomas clock it would say on the face of it above the 12, Seth Thomas and below the 6, Manufactured in the United States of America. It should have some sort of name on the face of it and if not it is possibly a replica. Either way it is a nice clock. I have a Seth Thomas one that looks just like it only in wood grain color and I have seen a replica in the color you have pictured, but I'm not saying it is. Any antique dealer or agent would be able to help if this doesn't

possibly brewster and ingraham circa 1844-1859

most likely a brewster and ingraham . the first company ingraham had circa 1844 -1859. can tell by the dial above the clock hands nwich is a slow fast mechanism, inherent to the first company. i have a older style possibly the tenth cabinet made by ingraham himself...hope this helps

seth thomas?
by: chuck

Looks like an adamantine seth thomas.

Do a google image search for that. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

They don't bring big money in the resale market, unless pristine and ornate.
