More Information

The gilt ormolu throughout is dull in appearance. There is a repair to the ankle of one of the cherubs on top of the clock. The porcelain panels appear to be in good condition.
This clock does not have a pendulum. The base has a faded fabric top. There are knocks and scrapes consistent with age. The springs appear good.
