needing work. Some one made a pendulum out of a brooch and wire which will need replacing. The gold leaf portions have been crudely brushed with gold paint. The dial was originally porcelain, is now painted card stock, and stained; outer bezel missing altogether; hands do not match. Interestingly, the little shadow box at top still has its original dried flowers and there is a print at top of Vienna and the Danube River, and a print in the base of a Royal Castle. This clock is a real project, but could be restored to elegance by a patient workman. Height 25" $275-375
