Condition: there is a crack in the chapter ring at 1:30, now dark, but no porcelain missing. The movement has dried oil and dirt and will need cleaning. The hands are improper replacements; no pendulum (replacements readily available). The case itself is in good shape and retains a very good label (with wear) that is still legible. An uncommon clock that is sure to appeal to the Ansonia collector. Height 17.5 inches
