The hood has a molded arch pediment with a keystone, and a molded arch above the door, which is hinged and glazed and has an astragal top. Under the board of the arched top is a central medial brace. At each of the four corners are free-standing, fluted columns. At the rear are fluted split spindles. Four vertical pieces of wood frame the rectangular sidelights. The door has a ring drop pull, and it opens to reveal a composite brass dial with an applied, silvered chapter ring, and Roman numerals indicating hours and Arabic numerals indicating minutes. The spandrels are decorated with applied cast urn and eagle ornament. In the lunette is a rocking ship. Inside the chapter ring there is an engraved moon face, a calendar aperture, and a silvered nameplate engraved: [G Brown / BOSTON]. The bonnet back is rabbeted to receive the square-topped backboard of the trunk. Front boards extend over the sides of the trunk.    Cavetto molding gives way to the trunk from the hood. The waist has a hinged door with a subtle astragal top and a shell carving. The door is one board. A shaped escutcheon and keyhole is on the left side. The base has cavetto molding at the top and stepped molding at the bottom. The clock rests on small ogee bracket feet.    The case has been subject to extensive restoration. The exterior has been refinished. Three holes in the cornice suggest it may have once had brass finials. The lunette is partly repainted. Extensive restoration has been done to the trunk and the base, including replacement molding and bracket feet. Cove moldings above and below the trunk have been reworked or replaced. The opening of the trunk door has been narrowed by strips added to the sides of the front board of the base. Square fillets have been added to the sides of the front board of the base. The trunk is patched around the door hinges. The current hinges (at least as of 1985) are the third set attached to this clock."},{"label":"Date Digitized","value":"7/20/2018"},{"label":"Marks, Signatures, and Inscriptions","value":"Engraved on nameplate on dial: G Brown / BOSTON].
