This handsome clock is among the first generation of these patent time pieces produced by the innovative clockmaker Simon Willard [1753-1858] of Roxbury, Massachusetts. Examples like this, with cross-banded frames and understated geometric eglomisé panels, were made in the shops of Simon Willard during the first years of his patent, after 1802. Although numerous fine examples we made by his apprentices over the next twenty-five years, these rare, early examples are the most prized.. Height with finial: 39”; Width 10”; Depth 3 1/2”.
