Condition:
Overall in honest untouched condition and now in need of some restoration, the three main finials looks like they will once tipped with further additions. The right-hand finial has been glued back at some point. There is a split running front to back down the right side of the top of the case. Minor rubbing around the sides of the front door which has the original lock and working key. Dial in good clean original condition. I am pushing in to the back door grill along with fading and wear to the original red lining fabric. Movement looks to be in good original condition, numbered 6910. Makers stamp to both of the L-shaped brackets holding the movement to the case. Comes with the original pendulum and an associated key. Movement looks complete but not tested for timekeeping. An old fine split running down the right side of the top of the back of the case. Original bracket now has additional metal L-shaped supports attached to it otherwise looks to be in good order width 53 height 30 depth 35.
