This clock has had a hard life; the 4 small threaded studs that should go down through the marble to hold the clock onto the base are absent. A workman then slotted the 4 turned brass feet to accept the bottom edge of the clock frame without falling off. The nicely fretted silvered brass dial was recently re-silvered. Sounds a single bell on the hour via passing strike. The old oval dome is in good condition with no cracks nor chips. Height 17.5 inches
