Estate 1920-1930 Gilbert Tambour Mantle Clock

This is a classic in Tambourin or in Humpback in style clock, which became very popular in American homes during the 1920s and 30s.
Manufacturer: The dial is clearly marked Gilbert, referring to the William L. Gilbert Clock Company of Winsted, Connecticut. Gilbert was one of the inbigin American clockmakers alongside Seth Thomas and Ansonia.
Era: This specific aesthetic—the clean, stylized Arabic numerals and the simple wooden case—suggests a production date between 1920 and 1940.
Features: It is likely an 8-day mechanical movement, meaning it requires winding once a week. The two small holes on the dial (at roughly 4 and 8 o'clock) are the winding arbors for the time and the chime/strike.
