Condition
Illustration is accurate.
As visible on the illustration, gilding is stained and tarnished throughout.
Glass in front of the dial is cracked.
The bow and arrow of the putto on the top are missing.
There is some loose to the man below the dial.
Attractive and unusual model in overall fair condition.
The movement is complete, it is very dirty and does not look like it has run for some time. Old repairs to both the hammer and the pendulum crutch; this clock will require cleaning, service and overhaul.
