Condition: some of the gilding has worn away, leaving yellow brass showing, and there is some bluish oxidation in some of the crevices. Note this is a multi-piece case, the front and rear cast separately and screwed to a center portion. Fancy cast dial has bulbous spheres on which the silvering and numerals are worn. The movement has been recently serviced and the clock is in good running/striking order. Very good+ overall. Ht 16"
