A wonderfully atmospheric antique alarm “steeple” mantel clock, labelled Jerome & Co / New Haven, Conn. (U.S.A.), with the classic Gothic Revival chapel-top case and a sweet painted rose tablet to the lower door. This is the kind of piece that absolutely nails the Dark Academia / Gothic Revival interior trend—perfect on a mantel, sideboard, or bookshelf among old leather spines.

The clock is in working order, and it’s fitted with the alarm function (alarm hand/mechanism present, as shown). Condition shows honest age throughout: surface wear and scuffs to the wooden case (notably around edges and base), light marks/patina to the dial and fittings, and general antique character—nothing that stops it displaying beautifully.
