This clock has been hanging idle for some time and will need cleaning in order to run. It is however, mechanically sound and with an excellent tri-color dial and original hands. The walnut case has the heavy turned columns so popular in Germany during the last decade of the 1800s, and retains original top (the little leaf carving is an old replacement, and doesn"t look bad), and the case finish is original as well. Book matched veneer in the back of the case. Original crank. Height 56'
