Description: Antique Sessions Black Mantel or Shelf Clock, 8 day time and half hour strike, from about 1920, in excellent working condition. Original finish restored. Features a dark red marbleized molding above two Egyptian green columns, flanking the face, and ornate handles and feet. Incised designs around the dial are in good condition, with little wear. Metal trimmings are restored to their original antique gold finish with metal leaf. They will retain their luster and will not turn brown (as gold paint does after a couple of years). Original brass bezel and dial polished and finished. Paper dial is a replacement, an exact Sessions reproduction which bears the Sessions logo. Clock movement has just been overhauled (movement was completely dismantled, worn bushings, new hammer leather, click springs, spring wire, springs, and any other repairs done as needed). Clock movement has just been serviced (serviced means cleaned, lubricated, and balanced), using only synthetic lubricants. Synthetic lubricants are superior to standard petrochemical 'oils'. They have better lubricating qualities, are longer lasting and do not discolor, smell or become gummy with age, requiring less frequent maintenance. Clock strikes hour on a cathedral gong and the half hour on a bell. Pendulum bob is original, key and wood back cover are replacements. Dimensions: 12 inches wide, 5 inches deep, 10.5 inches high.Clock may require minor adjustment after shipping. Clock is balanced for a level surface and should be placed on a level surface to run correctly. The clock will come with a set of instructions that will tell you how to set up and maintain it. I am also available anytime after the sale for any questions that arise.ShippingAll clocks are shipped with insurance and signature upon delivery confirmation. Any damage caused by shipping service abusive handling will be resolved by the buyer filing an insurance claim with the shipping service. NOTE: IF YOUR SHIPPING ADDRESS IS A P.O. BOX YOU MUST SELECT USPS PRIORITY MAIL AS UPS (STANDARD SHIPPING) WILL NOT SHIP TO P.O. BOXES. Returns Because of eBay's changes to return policy I am not using their return system. I will accept returns on a case by case basis, only if the clock is not as described. I will not accept returns for any other reason, (such as buyer's remorse). Please read the description and look at all the photos. Also feel free to ask questions. By placing a bid you agree to all the terms stated above. Thank you.
