castings have been repainted. Figure is missing her right pinky finger. Element held in figure's hand appears incomplete. The veined onyx is in good condition but one sidepiece has a missing front corner. The porcelain dial with indistinct retailer name is fine as is the beveled glass and blued steel hands. Repairs to candelabra castings. Movement has pendulum but will need a suspension spring. Movement ticks and strikes, but was not tested long term.
