The brass case is generally clean, but there is some damage on the right corner molding on the base, and the brass rear door is a replacement for a glass door that is now lost. The porcelain dial has a couple of hairline cracks. The hands and oversize mercury pendulum are original. One of the beveled side glasses has a chip on the corner. The other 2 glasses are perfect. A substantial and impressive clock. Height 12.75 inches
