Clock was wound up and we had to cut the cord to get the weights outÖ someone refit the hour hand to the wooden pipe with a piece of tin, and so tight that it is hopelessly stuck, thus holding the dial hostage. Damage will likely result when you force it apart. Glass is old, lower now clear with a floral print. Stenciling and claw feet good. Worth some effort; Height 29'
