Condition: this clock has been in storage and needs restoration, However it is well made and has lots of potential. The original convex dial attaches to the movement with a false plate, typical of dial clocks of this period. Signature on the dial is weak, but can still be made out. No chain nor cable in place. Well made movement with "eyebrow" shaped plates. The mahogany bezel has split and the cast bezel hinge has a repair. Diameter of case = 14.5" [37cm]
