A rare early American shelf clock made by Seymour, Williams & Porter of Farmington, Connecticut, circa 1825, featuring the patented Eli Terry wooden works movement. This beautifully aged example represents one of the key innovations in early U.S. clockmaking — the mass production of affordable, reliable clocks for the growing 19th-century market.

The clock retains its original paper label inside the case, marked “Patent Clocks, Invented by Eli Terry, Manufactured and Sold by Seymour, Williams & Porter, Farmington, Conn.” The lower glass panel displays a period reverse-painted lithograph titled “Helen” by E.B. & E.C. Kellogg and D. Needham, adding exceptional decorative appeal.

Includes pendulum, weights, key, and hardware as shown (untested for operation). The case features its original stenciled columns and splat, with warm patina and historical character.
