CONDITION REPORT

There is one wood rod pendulum but no key for this clock.  The movement strikes and chimes, although the hammer does not engage correctly on the gongs as the movement seatboard is secured too far to the back of the case.  

There are some loose elements on the case, see additional images.

The clock ticks, chimes and strikes, however we would suggest the movement is serviced.  


One finial is broken but present, as well as a rosette from the swan neck.  There is some moulding broken and lost from the top front of the case which will require attention.
