CONDITION REPORT

With two cast iron weights and brass bob pendulum and key.

The movement appears well cared for and clean.  It may require a service/oil?

The case has a small chip to the upper left corner of the door.  The legs are uneven resulting in teh case being unsteady.  A slight horizontal crack to the base plinth.  Overall with some sympathetic restoration it will provide an attractive clock for the home.
