Condition: See detailed description for condition report Vintage wooden mantle clock with swirl design and brass feet wind up mechanism (fixed key) for restoration or spares Size (approx.): 15.7cm tall x 18.6m wide x 7cm deep Condition: Wood is worn, especially at the edges. Metal is dull and tarnished. Face is a little grubby, glass intact.It has scroll decoration on the front. The circular metal back cover has several dents.There is a thin stalk which I assume turns the hands. When I locate my pliers, I will test and add to the listing.It winds very smoothly. It has a lever near the top rear of the mechanism and when I slid it over, the clock started.It has a nice gentle tick. I have tried to record it, and attach the video. You will need to turn your sound up.As you fiddle around the back, the mechanism does move around a little (is a bit loose). It has been running for a little while. However, with all my vintage clocks, I can't guarantee it will keep running, due to its age.I sell as non-working, for a clock repairer to service and restore as required.
