29 inches high walnut case, burled veneer door, fancy cut glass with good stenciling. Oversized top crown and finial, good old finish. Nice Gilbert label on back. Original two piece dial shows wear between 4-8. Old hands, 8 day movement strikes the hours on a nickel plated bell, runs and strikes properly but is quite dirty; beveled mirror pendulum. This is another example of a hard to find wall clock. Ly- Gilbert No. 351.
