Description
Someone decided to enhance the appearance of the walnut veneer case by painting it with gold and adding black accents. The porcelain and brass dial is in good condition, but the porcelain chapter ring has numerous hairline cracks. The hands are original. The door has an original beveled glass panel that was placed in the door backwards when it was painted. The pendulum has a couple of dings and some damage on the edge. The movement strikes on two hammers in a bim bam fashion on two long rods and the hours on one rod. Movement is complete and mechanically sound. Note the case hanger failed and a horse shoe has been attached to the case for hanging. Height 46 inches
