CONDITION REPORT

With a steel key and its pendulum.  The clock was probably formerly ebonised?  It strikes, ticks and repeats.  It might benefit from a service.  The case is in overall good condition.  There are marks and knocks consistent with age and some slight cracks to veneer in places.  It would benefit from a good wax.
