Condition: this clock has been nicely restored, and the original lever platform is intact and ticking fine. Minor defects include a crack in the rear door frame which is now held in place by an inner glass retainer, and some inner edge roughness on the front beveled glass which is only noticeable on close inspection. Porcelain dial is perfect and hands original. Note the strike selector is on the rear plate, a delicate arm that is placed in one of 3 positions for"Grande Sonnerie, Strike or Silent". This is another fine carriage clock from the late Betty Mather's personal collection. Height 7.5 inches
