Description

The guitar is wood, 11" high, with a metal overlay covering the front and sides. Unusual metal arrangement with very small pieces of metal pieced together. It has six guitar strings from end to end. Beveled glass over the porcelain dial ring, brass inner dial, and a petite pair of hands. Winds and sets in the back, and the movement is running. There is an easel stand in back.
