Mahogany Girandole Clock Attributed to J. N. Dunning, Burlington, Vermont, c. 1825, with carved Prince of Wales finial, glazed wood bezel over the 7 5/8 in. painted iron dial with Roman numerals, carved side ornaments flanking the waist section, mahogany veneered panels, carved lower pediment, and eight-day brass movement with pendulum and cast iron weight, ht. 45 in. This clock is in restored condition. Case is essentially pine with the top and bottom sections of laminated construction. This method of case construction suggests an original grain-painted surface on primary areas, now gone; case refinished inside and out, wooden panel in lower section is a replacement, in-painting on dial, original movement, hands, weight and pendulum.
