This is a project clock with some merit. The tortoise shell is in reasonable condition for its age, some missing and some inlay missing. The top is just a shaped block of wood (no shell nor inlay) with an ormolu cherub screwed on (you can use the cherub, but will need a better and taller top to mount him to). There is no bracket. You will need a different dial and movement if you intend to restore it. Height 36 inches
