The gold scroll work and mother-of-pearl case is in very nice condition under an original finish. The upper dial glass is original, while the frosted tablet is a replacement. The dial is not original, as it was made using a section from a modern dial. The case houses a ribbed plate Brewster & Ingrahams movement with brass springs (the widely spaced winding arbors give it the appearance of an 8-day). The gong is a modern replacement and the hands are of a later vintage. Despite all of these concerns, it is still a good looking clock, in running order. Height 16.5 inches
