The refinished mahogany veneered case is in very nice condition with a little veneer damage at the bottom hinge. You can still see evidence of stencilling on the half columns, but most of it is gone. The original painted dial is extra nice and the movement is correct for the case. The upper glass is original and has a flaw that at first glance would make you believe the glass is cracked. The lower tablet is new. One claw on the left carved foot is broken off and one side return is replaced. It looks like this clock probably had pineapple finials that are now missing. The lock is missing. There is a set of period dust covers. Height 28.5 inches
