Signed movement with serial number 583751. The movement looks to be original to this case, has adjustable pallets, and is clean and running. 2 piece porcelain dial, but inner dial is not original and is a contemporary replacement. They did a fine job of replacing. Pendulum stick and maybe the brass bob are contemporary. The top, base, capitals, and bases on the half columns, all are carved. Finials are a tossup, always questionable, but the bottom one I feel is replaced. 3 good glasses. 47 inch walnut case is extremely good looking with the many carvings.
