Condition: the dial has a few hairlines around 5 and 8, otherwise excellent. The crown wheel/ verge movement has been cleaned and restrung.. Strikes the hours on a large bell at top (bell nut is missing, easy to replace), then repeats the hour again, this one at about one minute after. The dial surround with wheat and harvest themes, matches the repousse pendulum with same motif. Height 58 inches
