the rosewood veneer has a good old finish with some minor losses at edges and corners. One finial lost its tip. The original painted dial has faded numbers, the hour hand is correct, but the minute hand is a bit short. The etched glass tablet is retained with dots of glue and may be newer. The inside paper label is very dark. The movement, correctly signed, ticks and strikes but was not tested long term. Ht 19 3/4"
