Stickley Mission Mantel Clock – Quarter-Sawn Oak

1998 Stickley Mission Mantel Clock – Quarter-Sawn Oak, Model 89-84

The quarter-sawn oak gives this Stickley mantel clock its distinctive character. Look just below the dial and you can see the lighter ribbons that cross the straight grain. Woodworkers call this figure ray fleck. The warm golden finish brings it out beautifully, and the broad, flat front gives you room to appreciate the pattern.

The case has the clean lines of Stickley’s Mission furniture, with an overhanging top, a beveled base, and two raised square accents beneath the dial. The original Stickley dial sits within a rounded oak surround. Dark Arabic numerals, slender hands, and small square motifs carry the Arts & Crafts detailing through to the face.

Made in Manlius, New York, this example retains both the Stickley brand mark and the metal maker’s badge on the back. The removable wooden cover is stamped 89-84 and dated January 29, 1998. Behind it, a battery-operated quartz movement provides time-only operation without winding or chimes.

Condition and included items

Recently cleaned and tested, the clock is working properly and is in very good vintage condition. The oak retains its rich color, with light wear consistent with careful use.
