clock, with ebony finish and cast caryatids and finials in the English style. The movement is identical to clock no. 424, (siamesed chime movement) this one with serial number 731. The arched silvered dial with fine engraving, and a hand in the arch for selecting chime or silent and a stud at 12 for F/S adjustment. The case with some nicks and scrapes, and some shrinkage and a loose glue joint or 2. Still a good looking and pleasant sounding chime clock, the hours struck on a spiral gong. Height 26 inches
