The case has been refinished to show the beautiful rosewood and mahogany veneer, and had a pretty heavy coat of varnish that needs wire-wooling down a bit. There are some minor veneer chips on the flat area of the case. The original dial has been papered over with a printed dial. Both glasses are original. The clock retains its original brass springs. The escutcheon plate for the key lock is missing; hands are old, but not original; retains nice Brewster label. An early OG that will respond to restoration. Height 26"
