Veneered case is 26", very dark and dirty but I would guess it is mahogany. This old clock has one redeeming feature; both glasses are behind the original putty. Note the great reverse painting. Over half of the label intact, the important half. The dial is filthy, paint is pretty good, and surely you can find something that will clean it. Movement and gong are original, but needs to be serviced and restrung. Weights are homemade but should run the movement. If you can restore this clock you should go into the refinish business. A real challenge.
