Condition
In fine overall condition, with minor wear to gilding and surface. Figure is missing rope and spool that would have been held. Glue and paper residue to back of case. Small loss to back edge of barrel. Takes a wind. Retains pendulum, winding key and chime. Runs for a short period of time, but likely needs to be properly balanced and reviewed by an horologist to ensure proper time keeping. We cannot guarantee working condition.
