The mahogany veneer case has cross band inlay oval on the door and circle on the plinth, plus line inlay along the perimeters. Case has a very old finish with nice patina, and has obviously housed this movement for a long time. The movement itself has typical arched cut outs at the bottom of both plates. The painted dial is in very good condition, but has been varnished over at some time and the varnish has yellowed. The hour hand is original; the minute hand is old but of a different style. Retains original NH tin can weights, and proper pendulum. A very attractive combination. Height 97Ó $3,000-$5,000
