40 inches tall mahogany case, gilded roped throat and lower door. Throat glass replaced, someone did a nice job of matching lower original glass. Lower glass has had some touch-up over the years. Oval opening in glass to expose pendulum. Movement, weight, pendulum, eagle seem to be original to case. Original dial has been professionally repainted. Upper bezel latch complete and works, lower door lock missing. Bottom of base has been cracked and repaired; weight probably let go at one time. Repair on crutch wire. Clock runs fine.
