Case is refinished with veneer losses on base, one small veneer patch on left chimney, but otherwise very good condition with very nice bronze-powder stencils on columns and splat. Colorful but primitive repainted glass tablet, top glass also newer and recently puttied. Wrong hands. Very good inside paper label mostly complete. Movement complete, may need a few bushings to run and strike reliably. Very nice painted and gilt-gesso dial. Ht.35".
