There are multiples areas of veneer lifting with patches, infill, and staining to cover it up. Discoloration around the repairs. Cracking particularly visible on the back almost across the entire piece horizontally and around where the legs continue into the case. The bronze on the front right leg is broken off near the foot along the edge in two places. A few screws missing from the bronzes; some of the bronze mounts loose. Leather surfaces are well-worn and marked. Typical dings, dents, and surface scratches throughout as consistent with age and use.

Please note that this clock movement is sold 'as is' and Bonhams does not guarantee its working order or completeness. There is no key for the clock.
