Chandler & Co.\u201d He traveled to Boston to learn how to make Willard\u2019s Patent Timepieces.\u00a0 In the past we have owned Mirror Timepieces, Banjo & Lyre Clocks\u00a0 by Chandler including a rare three train: time, strike and alarm clock by Chandler & Farley.<\/p>\n

The lyre clock depicted in the photos below is a fine example of his work with fabulous Acanthus leaf carved finial and carved throat frame.\u00a0 Both glasses are original and at one time there was a hairline crack in the throat frame with some minor in-painting.\u00a0 The bottom glass is near mint.\u00a0 The painted iron dial is untouched and original with a wonderful flowing script signature.\u00a0\u00a0 The works are complete including the Alarm train and setting mechanism.\u00a0\u00a0 The case has never been refinished.<\/p>\n
