Outstanding 16 inch mahogany veneer case with bright gold around the top and door glass. It is hard to see but there is a blue outline around the original door glass. Excellent old zinc dial has been repainted. Signed8 day movement, strikes a brass bell. Fancy pendulum bob, old paper on the backboard, label on the back. The springs are wired, I didn't remove to see if the clock runs. Ly-Gilbert No.1049.
