This cute little model with rippled door is in clean condition with original tablet and the applied rosewood graining is superb. It is uncommon to see such a small lyre front. The dial has suffered from paint loss but retains it's original signature. The tablet shows signs of wear, but is still very good. There is wonderful little label inside the case. The ladder movement is a single strip of brass with a ribbed edge. The alarm lifting piece has been restored at some time (well done). With embossed pendulum. Height 11 inches
