Condition: the tablets have been replaced, however the original tablets are included with the clock [lower one is broken]. This clock has all of the Willard attributes, just no signature: slender barbed hands, convex dial with thin line chapter and Arabic numerals, typical Willard style movement with angled corners, slender side arms, spun finial with fancy embossed decoration. The door and throat have contrasting line inlay; left side of door with veneer repair. A reminder that these Mather clocks have No reserve, and we are attempting to be realistic with our estimates. Also with a Riggs, Philadelphia repair label. Height 34.5 inches
