Condition Report
The clock set is in ok condition for age, the gold finish to the metal may have had a overhaul at some point but looks great with a superb colour
all porcelain panels and dial of main clock are free from damage including chips and cracks only minimal wear to cobalt blue on one pillar
the porcelain pillars to the 2 garnitures have had some repair and touch ups but hard to notice on display because there is so much going on
dial is free from damage
movement looks a little dirty so would probably benefit from a clean/service but in working order as it is
