Most of the original gilding has worn to brass from polishing and the very fine detail has been lost as well. The well made round 8-day movement has silk thread suspension. Besides the fanciful scrolls and waves, themes include a lion and 2 children eating grapes. This set is extremely heavy. Height of clock 24.5"; height of candelabra, 28 inches
