Condition
In overall fine and stable condition. Retaining an older surface, but likely early refinished. Scuffs, marks, and scratches consistent with age and use. Â The clock takes a wind, runs, and chimes on the hour, though uncertain of the accuracy of the 8-day movement. The works and case appear to be original to each other. Appears to retain the original winding key, weights, and pendulum, though evidence of minor repairs to the pendulum and weights is visible. Weight cables replaced. Age cracks with associated lifting to the trunk door. Craquelure to the face and moon phase dial, with areas of loss to the moon phase. The brass finials, while showing age, are likely replaced. The bottom board is broken out and lost.
