The mahogany veneered case is pretty good with some veneer repairs, some pieces missing and the stenciling having been redone. The dial is not original as it has been cut to fit the case. The upper glass is old but has new putty and the mirror is a replacement. The Whiting movement is correct for the case. The ivory or bone escutcheon on the door is missing. The pulleys have been repositioned and raised up to cover larger holes made in the past. This clock could be used for good parts or if you enjoy restoration work it could be properly restored. Height 35 inches
