Description

Seth Thomas “Metronome de Maelzel” No. 7 Wooden Pyramid Metronome

Classic Seth Thomas “Metronome de Maelzel” No. 7, produced by the General Time Corporation in Thomaston, Connecticut, USA. This traditional mechanical metronome features a distinctive pyramid-shaped hardwood case with a warm honey finish and a brass “Seth Thomas” nameplate on the front. The interior label provides operational instructions and bears the printed maker’s mark and U.S. manufacturing details, while the base is stamped “Metronome #7” with serial 5511.

A beautifully crafted mid-20th-century example of American clockmaking precision, this metronome is both a functional musician’s tool and a collectible accent piece that reflects Seth Thomas’s enduring legacy of quality craftsmanship.
