There are small pieces of brass and tortoiseshell missing in this area but this is fairly minor. The front right hand corner of the ebony veneered cornice has a small surface loss and there is a crack to the return on the left hand side. Both the right hand and left hand panels are in good order as is the front door and surround. The plinth base is in good condition and the feet are original. The rear door is in good order.

The only slight issues are losses to the fretwork panels to either side of the case. There is a small area of loss to both sides. The rear door is more substantially damaged, it hinges correctly however. The centre fretwork panel has been pushed in and has breaks and small pieces missing. The movement itself is all present and correct and whilst a little dirty it appears to be operating as it should. The clock is currently ticking away.

The brass finial is in good order as is the caddy top. There has been a finial to the left and right hand front corners of the cornice. These are missing and there are holes.

The sides of the piece are in generally good condition as is the base. The back panel has been cut out in order to facilitate winding. The bracket is in generally good condition with no significant areas of damage or any losses. The dial is dirty and has clearly had later steel screws through the chapter ring.

It has a very good colour and good patination. The door is not warped. The dial is in very good condition. The movement appears to be complete and is currently striking as it should.
