refinished mahogany veneered case in clean condition. Veneer on the base is missing and the veneer on the top edge of the cornice could have been replaced as you usually find the grain oriented vertically. Original painted dial is clean with some minor wear and paint loss. Bottom tablet has been replaced with a modern mirror. Center tablet is old but may be a replacement as you usually see this glass in a Seth Thomas clock. Label is dark with losses, but enough remains to read. Ht 32"
