Condition
In good condition. The arched crown molding has a crack just left of center. There is separation to the corner joints of the hood from age. There is a chunk gone to the lower left corner of the mid-door. Scattered dings. Retains a rich finish and patina. Some tarnishing to the brass elements as well as the silvering on the face. Door key is present. Two weights and pendulum present. The pendulum is lacking its suspension spring to hang it. We are uncertain as to its running condition.
