The mahogany case has wonderfully stenciled half columns and splat. The hands are later replacements. The label is excellent. The lower tablet, while original, has significant restoration. The upper glass is an old replacement. The pineapple finials have minor damage. The movement may not be original to the case. The painted dial, which has been inpainted to cover horizontal cracks, has been significantly modified on the back side to better accommodate the movement. Ht 29 1/2Ò.
