Condition

Please note, DuMouchelles does not guarantee working order or original parts for clocks. The movement has not been examined for maker's marks. The pendulum and winding key don't appear to be original to clock. One of the half-columns is loose. There is a large repaired crack to the lower half of the piece. The clock shows marks and wear consummate with age and use.
