Miniature Tall Clock

Thomas Claggett

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The clock is made of dark brown wood with a glossy finish. The clock has a tall, slender body with a rectangular base and a slightly wider section at the bottom. A rectangular door with a brass handle is on the lower half. The upper half features a clock face with a white background, black Roman numerals, and gold hands and decorations. A small, arched top section has a carved design and three dark finials. The clock stands on short, curved feet and is on a dark wooden surface against a white background.
