Seth Thomas Metronome No 8 E873-111 De Maelzel Vintage Wood Pyramid Wind Up

For generations Seth Thomas of Thomaston, Connecticut was a household name for clocks, and this Metronome de Maelzel is the classic pyramid-shaped, key-wound tempo keeper that sat on piano tops and in music studios through the mid-20th century. Musicians, teachers and collectors of vintage music gear still love them, and the warm wood case looks right on a piano, shelf or desk.
