Model No: 151M215
The earliest clocks to appear in America were those
brought over by the early settlers. Basic methods
of clock construction here were similar to those used
in England and Holland but had to be adapted to local
needs because of short supply of materials. Local woods such as cherry, walnut or tiger
maple were used. This clock is strongly influenced by a late 18th Century American clock and is a compliment to many traditionally
styled American homes.
