More Information

The case has some poor restorations and running repairs to the veneers particularly around the hood. There are splits to the trunk, particularly on the right hand side (see images). The hood has a split to the left hand side. The clock has two weights and a pendulum but no gut for the chiming mechanism. The dial is generally in good condition but for the rolling moon which has paint flaking. The clock is currently not working.
