clock movement. This is a very uncommon maker. The dial lettering has faded and some minor damage on the edges. The corner spandrels and arch decoration are in pretty nice condition. With the black work strengthened, this would be a very pretty dial. The movement is in nice condition with no broken teeth. The works have grooved barrels, which have been seen on their 8-day movements. The strike is actuated by a lift lever on the front plate. The hands are old and appear to be original. The little lead counterweights for the pull appear to be original. Height 16 inches
