The highly figured marble case is in very nice condition with a couple of tiny chips on the right base corner and along the back edge of the top. The very ornate dial with porcelain number inserts is perfect. The hands are original and the beveled door glass is perfect. The movement is signed by the maker. Overall, this is a clock that has survived in excellent condition. With a jeweler's label of C. H. Dygert, where it was cleaned in 1918 for $1.50. See Ly's Ansonia book, page 355 (yes this is really called the Alhambra) Height 9 inches
