Description
with "R-A" pendulum, restored. The case has been refinished and the finials newly turned by a very good cabinet maker. The well made movement has solid plates and cut pinions; good porcelain chapter ring, but the dial center has been replaced with a piece of painted tin (you can't tell until you tap it); bezel has a small dent on one side. Strikes the hours and halves on a coiled gong. In all original condition, these have been bringing around $700, so our estimate reflects the restoration. Height 37" $275-375
