Century old clocks like this are very uncommon.
It
is finished in beautiful gilt trim. The backside is the same condition
and finish as the face. All original from time of purchase.
This
time piece has been in our family from the beginning of its existence.
Passed down from one generation to another until now. A one owner gem . Winds and runs. Has not been used for decades, was packed away in a dry attic cedar chest .
NO ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO CLEAN THE CLOCK!! IT IS AS IT WAS WHEN REMOVED FROM STORAGE. THE GOLD GILT IS VERY NICE.
The clock is approx 4 pounds of solid bronze. It stands 10", measures 6" across and 4.5" deep.
The roman numerals VII appear on the rear of the clock, looks like faded ink

Remember, this is NOT from some estate sale or reseller where no one knows the true condition or history. Now this RARE TIME PIECE is ready for another collector.
This is an ANTIQUE clock, expect that it should be cleaned and serviced as with any Vintage clock, sold AS IS AS SHOWN ONLY
