The wooden dial surround looks like cherry wood and there is an dry split in the lower edge around 5 o'clock. The dial is nice and crisp with signature "Smiths, Coventry". The movement is a non-fusee, going barrel type with the name "Astral, Coventry" stamped on the back. The hands are original. The pendulum is a heavy brass bob commonly found on fusee models, has had the threaded portion broken off and re-attached. Height 15 inches
