The mahogany veneered case is in extra nice condition with an old finish. There are a couple of veneer repairs on the base. The feet appear to be original and if not, then someone did an outstanding job. The top is original, but the right scroll was damaged and the tip was replaced. Both glasses are original, with the painted tablet has a fair amount of flaking. The painted dial is very nice with just a little paint loss on one edge and a stress crack to the paint at the four o'clock position. The wooden movement is correct Hoadley model. The finials are proper reproductions. The door is latched with a wooden knob and not a metal lock and there is no indication it ever had one. Height 31.5 inches
