Fine Kidney Dial Shelf Clock by Aaron Willard, Boston, circa 1800.

This beautiful and rare shelf clock features one of the best dials I have seen.
 
The case is constructed of dense mahogany with good figure and the movement is in excellent running condition.
 
The finials and one pierced fret are old replacements.
 
Height: 35" including finial.
