CONDITION REPORT

Three brass-cased weights and a steel rod brass bob pendulum with a crank key.

The case has three later wooden fillets on the hood which enabled some support for some finials, now lost.  The panel door is warped.  Otherwise in original condition, the wood a little dry and would benefit from a polish.

The movement is a 19th century creation.  It is well made but very dirty.  Once serviced it is capable of functioning.  The dial plate has been re-used, there is evidence of previous dial feet.  The signature arc is most likely associated to the piece.  The engraving to the centre is Victorian in styling.
