Fine Furniture and Decorative Arts

In overall good, stable, complete condition. Case with even finish, with typical surface wear (nicks & scratches) consistent with age. Some tight age splits to veneers. Glass to hood (door and sides) intact. Dial clean with even patina. Works appear complete with two weights and pendulum. Clock runs for a while then stops. Unsure as to accuracy or duration of movement. Strikes on the hour. Clock face with three apertures under the moon phase dial which show the lunar calendar. Two holes flanking this area suggest something else (a decorative attachment) had been here but is now lacking. Additional images available upon request.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
