The mechanism is working (will run and strike correctly) however is somewhat dirty/neglected hence a clean/service is required before putting into service. The dial has overall flaking/losses and wear most noticeably to the lower edge, the hands are probably replacements with the minute being a little kinked (has been bent and straightened).The top of the case (including the top mouldings) has been rebuilt with the mouldings replaced with a simpler single profile than the originals which would have most likely been of double profile and taller. This has required the upper margin of the arch of the front door to be extended slightly to allow for the shallower top mouldings. The top mouldings are also omitted from the rear of the case (originally they would have continued around all sides of the case). The back door is a replacement - the original was probably glazed. The rest of the case is otherwise in sound original unrestored condition with faults limited to age related bumps, scuffs and small repairs. There are no locks present - both the front and rear doors are now held by hook clasps.Clock has original pendulum but no winder or case key. Condition Report Disclaimer

Modernist display cabinet, circa 1900.Carved wood, root veneer and leaded glass.Measurements: 187 x 61.5 x 38 cm.Modernist display cabinet made of wood and decorated with carvings, beautifully grained root veneer and leaded glass decorated with a beautiful and complex plant design. It has a classical, architecturally inspired structure, with chamfered corners decorated with corbels and columns, a base of cut-out skirts with a stepped top and a moulded frieze crowned with a small cornice.It is a two-part piece of furniture, the smaller lower part serving as a pedestal for the upper part. This lower body has a door with its handle, decorated on the front with the aforementioned root veneer, in a rectilinear recess topped by a segmental arch. This door is flanked by two typically modernist corbels, carved with sinuous, flowing forms that evoke the organic without actually making it concrete. The upper body follows a similar pattern, although it is more developed at a decorative level. The door is closed by a stained-glass window that combines leaded glass plates of different colours and finishes: marbled, pressed, tinted glass in different shapes, with different colours, composing a floral design halfway between realism and abstraction. The handle of this door has a more complex design than the one below it, based on sinuous, flowing lines that form an asymmetrical pattern. On both sides of this body we see turned columns made up of several superimposed bodies, located on chamfered corners that protrude from the ground plan, creating protrusions in the line of union between the two bodies. Inside this upper body is an open space, with a mirror covering the back that would multiply the light and, with it, the play of light and colours of the stained-glass window.
