The spelter case is in good condition with no obvious breaks or losses. It has a green finish which is probably not original but has some age. It gives an impression of something like a vibrant verdigris. The gilding has mostly worn off of the cast figures and ornaments. The white porcelain dial has one fine hairline crack. The beveled glass is very good. The pendulum is absent. The minute hand is a replacement. The round Ansonia movement is signed.
