This miniature clock is a wonderful folk art whimsy carved to resemble an American Chippendale tall case clock. The vision of the miniature is carried forward by the detailed diminutive dial and weight driven movement. The working brass movement, which is boldly signed on the back, was crafted by the New Bedford watchmaker, Charles W. Hurll (active 1850-1890).
