The decorative gilt elements are beautifully made with fine detail. As an example, the little spires on the top 4 corners have figures on both sides. The case has been cleaned and restored. The silvered dial has a tiny scratch at the 11 o'clock position. The original "geometric" pendulum is extra nice. The movement is marked "ACD". Riight rear spire is loose. Height 21.25Ó $2,800-$3,200
