the rear threaded support for the figure has failed and the figure is a bit loose on the base (2 front ones are holding fine). Statue will be removed for shipment. The figure itself appears to have had a bronze finish at one time, now painted gold, and with wear and dirt (there are no pock marks in the metal). The movement is complete and sound and the hands and pendulum are original. Height 20 inches
