The gilt case & bracket have been painted over with gold. The original tablets have lifting of the background and Ned Howard used strips of electrical tape to try to hold the pattern in place. The painted iron dial is very nice with a little paint loss around the mounting screws. The side arms are bent in a couple of places and right arm has a break that will need to be to soldered. The hands and eagle finial are original. The weight movement is signed Killam. These timepieces were cased and sold by Tilden and Thurber, Providence , RI. Height 41 inches
