Condition Report

Both going and chiming train wind freely, the movement runs but this is no guarantee of reliability or accuracy.

The clock chimes the hours and the half hours with a passing strike.

Crack to one of the feet on a garniture, but it still stands.

The metal elements are gold-painted rather than true gilt.

Some damage to the feet of the clock.
