deck clock with mahogany half columns below and mirrors inset at top. Although it is unusual to see the mirror in the back of the case, it appears on studying the case to have always been there; the door glass is clear with original putty. The flying eagle pendulum is a proper modern replacement, and the dial surround tablet is also new but attractively stenciled in the appropriate style. Note fabulous double eagle carved splat. An impressive clock with only modest restoration. Height 42 inches
