The highly figured mahogany case is in good condition with some veneer damage on the base, the cornice and next to the dial door. The bottom tablet glass appears to be original, but has been repainted (mansions in spring-time look OK). The mirror and top door glass are original. The painted wood dial is in very nice condition, except someone attached it with 4 screws (do not show when door is closed), and some wear to numerals 4+7. The hands are original. The movement is exceptionally clean. The label is intact and legible. The round lead weights are not original, but they run the clock fine. Wood works hollow columns do not turn up as often as brass works. Height 32.25 inches
