Refinished mahogany veneered case in very nice condition with a couple of small chips on the hinge side of the bottom door and small repair to the molding near the top hinge of the top door. Original painted dial has some minor loss at the mounting pins. Both glasses are original with some loss to the upper tablet. Hands are replacements. The chain on the wagon spring section looks to be a replacement. The leaves that make up the wagon spring maybe a replacement as they look to have been cut with a shear. Movement is signed. Ht 26"
