The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

In good decorative condition and ready to place. With the expected light nicks, marks and faint scratches, consistent with age and use. With some small dings to extreme edges. The srew connecting the penedulum rod to the pendulum tube now stripped. With one stable crack near where the case meets the base. With two keys and one winding key. Please note Christie's does not gurantee the working order of clock movements. This clock was inspected with restorer John Metcalfe who provided the following remarks: With jewelled deadbeat pallettes, jewelled escapement and palette bearings.
