Condition: This clocks has suffered some, one spire is missing its screw and is wrapped inside the case; silk tread has broken (easy to replace), and the strike hammer is absent. Gong has been re-positioned, and is screwed to the case itself, and with an additional gilt dust cover to the rear to protect both pendulum and gong. The case itself is also signed Hry. Banister, so we are sure the movement is original. Gilt hands are discolored now, but also original. Has been in storage; will need service. Height 16 inches
