Condition:
Clock overall in good untouched condition, ormolu is in two colours and remains in bright order, tiny chipping around the winding holes, very minor fritting the corners of the marble plinth, movement looks complete but not tested for timekeeping, comes with probably associated pendulum, bell to the back only just holds in place and may well be a later replacement. Urns – very close in design but not an exact match, one leaning slightly backwards, both with natural flaws showing as white veins within the marble.
