18th Century American Mahogany Tall Case Clock

Furniture: Clocks

American antique eight day tall case clock dating 1780-1790, by Jacob Moss of Philadelphia and Trenton. The case of this tall case clock is in a rich and wonderful mahogany having several different cuts of mahogany. It has lushes carved rosettes on top of the bonnet and a central pierced carved final. It has flame finials which have been repaired or replaced. Tombstone door with a mold edge and a shaped brass escutcheon and a highly figured crotch grained mahogany. It has an absolutely wonderful applied carved figured mahogany panel in the bottom section. The Ogee or bracket base feet are nicely carved and quite spectacular – they have had some old repair. Many other small refined and hidden details on this clock. Like the very unusual fluted design in the quarter columns of the waist and nice outside dovetail which is fine and elegant.

 

The clock works has an exceptional brass dial with a rare center second hand sweep. The brass dial has elegant foliate spandrels. The moon face is reserved and elegant – the art work is very well done. There is a plaque on the dial which reads – Jacob Moss Trenton. It is complete with two weights - the pendulum and the key. It is running and it strikes on the hour having a most powerful yet elegant and sophisticated ambiance ever. The case combination of mahogany and cherry is very striking. The surface patina is rich and lustrous.

 

Measurements: Impressive stature being 99” high. It is 18 3/8” at widest x 10 7/8” at deepest.
