Bottom of case shows empty holes that once held the bracket base, plus both wall brackets are present. The walnut case is very clean and the burled panels are intact. The calendar dial is original with the usual darkening of the calendar rollers; time dial has been repapered. We wish we knew the name of the carver who made the top for this, as his skills are second to none, unfortunately he had no pattern to go by, so just carved what he thought looked nice (it does). Despite the loss of the bottom and a new top it is still a very attractive clock. Just cleaned and running. Height 25"
