Condition: Ebonized case in generally good condition with damage to the veneer on top of the case and poor repairs to the top moldings. The wooden base has been replaced and with a mitered crown molding, painted black. Porcelain dial has been repaired at the winding holes, since the winding squares are too close together for this dial. Hands are replacements, too small. Movement is marked "J. B. Wilbor, Paris". Movement otherwise complete and sound, and well made. Ht 18" [45.7 cm]
