Negatives first: the top urn on the clock is slightly bent (not broken), and the entire set has been heavily sprayed with gold radiator paint. Now on the plus side, this is one of the best looking sets we've seen in a while, and the spelter trim appears to be 100 percent intact, no missing bits nor corners. The open escape movement is in good order, with good dial (one minor hairline at 9:30) and with original faux mercury pendulum, vials intact. The heavy beveled glass is all in good condition. This clock set is worthy of a good refinishing or plating job. Height of candelabra 16 " (includes both fancy snuffers), height of clock 16" The modest reserve is for all 3 pieces: $600
