- More information here - http://www.greenfieldclockshop.com/clocks/wells.html - From the web page - “New Haven Wells Westminster chime mantel clock, circa 1920. This New Haven 8-day Westminster chime mantel clock has a patent date of 1929 and was probably made around that time. The case is a style that was popular in the 1930's. The brass movement is distinctive by it's three-plate design. The movement is well made but rather complicated and some fine it challenging to service. The chime rods and hammer set are separate from the movement and connected by thin spring steel strips. The clock has a very pleasant sounding melody.”
