Condition: there is some wear to the gilding on the sides of the base and the rear, but facing surfaces are still quite bright and original. The dial has been refinished, and the hands are off of a much later clock. Still this case shows a very high level of detail, and is worthy of attention. Correct moon hands can be ordered from Timesavers in Arizona. The name Adraste is engraved in the center of the shield at top. Height 18 inches
