Chauncey Jerome Ogee #10

130817-1-1

This ogee dates to 1843 and has the original upper glass.  This represents the latest use of the reverse-painted spandrels that I’ve seen.  The mirror has either been re-puttied to secure it or it is an appropriate replacement.  I believe the type 1.311 movement is one of the earliest of its type from Bristol, suggesting that the movement was introduced around 1843.
