Condition

The illustration of the catalogue is accurate. Good overall condition despite the usual minor scratches and marks due to age and use. The gilding is slightly rubbed as expected. The movement of the clock is original. Please not that we do not guarranty the working order although it was working at the collector's place. It has to be revised by a professional due to the handling. Dial generally good with minor chips to both winding holes. Movement complete and looks as though it would run. Exceptional piece in a near mint condition.
