This cherry case clock is a successful provincial interpretation of an early Roxbury form with handsome proportions and an early bracket foot. The dial which is manufactured and painted in Boston, features a foliate and floral decorated lunette and floral blossoms in each spandrel. The dial is signed below the center arbor "J. Perrigo". The clock is in a wonderful state of originality with a pleasing old patina.
