The stripped mahogany veneer on this clock is in good condition with small veneer chips in several places and veneer splits on the door from shrinkage. The dial is pretty good with paint loss along the bottom edge that extends up about 1 inch. The two tablets are properly repainted on old glass. Usually you find the center section is a mirror. The splat and column bases and tops are gold painted. The door lock escutcheons have been replaced with veneer. The case houses a blanked front plate, solid back plate, rack striking weight movement. This firm was in business for about 3 years. Height 37 inches
