Very Good. There is a bit of general wear and tear and a few little chips out of the alabaster around the corners and decoration. No glass to the face. A bit dirty and grimy. Great piece of Victorian Goldfields memorabilia. Rare goldfields presentation clock ex Clunes Vic. According to Wikepedia, the pastoralist, Donald Cameron's run was where gold was first discovered in Vic. This clock is believed to be a present to a mine manager there in the 1870s. The clock is running with key and pendulum. Grade: N/A Estimate: $1250 - 1500
