| An important late Chippendale tall case clock by the well-listed maker Griffith Owen. Owen's career as a clockmaker spanned at least 24 years, between 1790- 1814; but this example, signed as made in "Montgomery County", a county within the Philadelphia area, was no doubt made early in his career before he moved his location into Philadelphia at #70 Mulberry St in Philadelphia. An outstanding example of the bold use of Chippendale design derived from the English standard but with details indigenous to the colonies' craftspeople, this solid walnut clock is handsome and important. 97"H x 19.25"W x 11.5"D | ||||||||||
