Description
This is basically a nice original clock, except the case was professionally refinished and the rosewood graining highlighted. Both tablets are old and have been reblacked from the rear. The lower has some losses and the edge has felt a blade which has left it a little bit irregular, but we would leave it alone (it really looks OK, we are just telling all you want to know here). The original paper over zinc dial is excellent (some scratches minor losses near attaching holes), and the original cast iron weight with numeral "4". Some one was worried about the rusty case hanger, so copied the original which is inside the case. No throat baffle but seems to run OK without. Movement is properly signed, and is running fine. Height 32 inches
