![]() Any wear or damage, I would describe as: The chain: has in some places lost some gilt/ darkened. Exterior of clock: Fantastic condition (most collectors would struggle to find a better example & could only achieve this by finding a never used boxed away item). Interior of clock It’s in superb condition (looks as good as the day it was made) & the back wood/ door plate/ panel also bears the original Venturi sticker. Box exterior also has its original label (see photo) but should mention the box has a bit of wear / dents - as can be seen in the photos. Box: The clock comes in its original box (again for a collector having an original box is A*** desired ): which includes: all original paperwork: clock instructions, inspection certificates plus original plastic bags for the hardware. ![]() This is a hand operated clock - pull down the acorns & swing the pendulum & it then sets off going - every 1/2 to the hour the door opens & cuckoo appears to 'cuckoo'. Working condition: It’s in 100% full (tried & tested) working order (a 24hr clock) & the cuckoo sounds as & when it should / on the hour & 1/2 hr (also to mention the cuckoo is in superb condition). If you've ever viewed one of these before (which I have), you can tell that this one really has had only very minimal use - this you can tell by the Acorns, body & back + the interior working, as all are A*****. It’s not new, but obviously from viewing, its condition it can be assumed means it’s spent the majority of its life boxed away - hence the fantastic condition.
