the clock retains its original finish nicely rubbed down. The original dial retains its original paint with some flaking, especially between 1 & 2. The reverse painted tablet done in blue and gold is old and with plenty of age, however we have only seen this in black/gold until now, so it may not be original. The label and paper beat scale are in excellent condition. The upper glass has a 4" crack near top. The clock has its original weight and gold leafed pendulum stick. We sold a similar example in our October 1, 2001 sale for $2100 plus 10% buyer's premium. Ht 32 1/2"
