the eye balls have been replaced, (linkage old) and the cuckoo is replaced with a flying duck, otherwise, a decent old clock in generally good condition. Flute bellows are re-covered, sound OK, a little "out of tune". 2 old weights, brass covered, do not match. Exterior paint on the case was distressed, and now shellacked over; former highlights are hidden. Ht of clock case = 14" add 4" for pendulum.
