Condition: Refinished rosewood case is in nice condition with some veneer loss on the base and a little damage on left steeple block. Original dial has been over-painted with effort to preserve the original signature. The minute hand maybe a replacement (proper design). Original frosted glass is cracked. Nice label inside case, with an ink stain, but still fully legible. Fusee movement appears to have been serviced recently and is running. A handsome clock in spite of restorations. Ht 20" [50.8 cm]
