Miniature New Hampshire Mirror Clock, probably New Hampshire, c. 1825, the pine case with painted turned half columns with brass rosettes at the corners, reverse-painted glass over the painted iron dial with Roman numerals, looking glass in lower section, thirty-hour brass weight powered movement with solid wheels and recoil escapement, 14-in. pendulum and associated weight, ht. 20 1/4 in. dial, painted glass and looking glass are old restorations; at first glance, the unusual size of this clock would cause alarm, but looking closely, the clock appears to be quite genuine with the above exceptions; at this size, this is a rare clock.
