there are a couple of minor repairs to the fern fronds, a small repair to eagle's wing and some odd nicks commensurate with the age of the item. The large and robust movement will tick, but needs servicing. Note the original bellows are leaking; flute are original. Pendulum appears original, certainly proper for the clock. Ht 27"
