In my opinion this is the finest grandmother clock ever produced by Foster Campos. The mahogany case is 60" tall. The inlays, fretwork, curly maple accents, choice of grain in the mahogany, brass work and impeccable workmanship combined with a Hartwigs 8 day time and bell strike movement of the finest quality and a brass dial with silvered chapter ring, applied cast brass spandrels and Campos/Hartwigs engraved silvered hemisphere in the arch have produced a clock that is simply unparalleled.
