This clock came out of a house and is as-found, movement is loose, orig top glass cracked. BUT, THIS IS A RARE item, even more uncommon than a mini ripple beehive and we have seen only 2 or 3 examples in the last 25 years. Positives are: original dial, tablet (some paint loss), finish, good label (with wear from throwing the key in the case). There are 2 minor veneer chips left corner of base molding, otherwise the mahogany veneer is great as well. The dial signature is weak but visible; minute hand is too short. We expect a lot of interest in this item. Height 15" $2000-2500
