Condition: the finish on the dog is worm mostly to bare metal. The embossed metal tail has been repaired. The well made brass movement is signed "MAYER". The compound pendulum enclosed within has an extension for the red painted tongue, and on the other end a pivot is attached to the tail, resulting in eye catching movement. The 1" porcelain dial has some cracks. Overall good condition for its age. Height 5 inches
