The rosewood veneered case has its original finish. The painted dial is flaking in places, and is a bit dirty. The veneer on the half-round molded edges is now missing (very difficult to re-veneer this rounded surface). The gilt molding on the bottom door is now painted with gold paint. The clock retains an exceptional label on the back (reflection is from plastic cover over label). Compare with lot 339. Height 31Ó $425-$525
