Condition: Refinished oak case is clean and attractive, however all 3 top trims are replaced, and not to the expected design. Both beveled glass panels are cracked (at their tops) with some loss to the silvering on one of the panels. Dial has been repainted. Hands are old and appear original. "Indicator" pendulum is original. This clock is what you might call "retail attractive". When all original, these can bring $1750. Ht. 25"
