Condition
Condition consistent with age. Two centimeter sized holes noted in Psyche’s robe. One urn is slightly loose from the marble base, and is able to be turned. The same urn is observed with a small reddish area, which does not detract from the overall patina. Dust debris observed throughout clock and urns. Not tested for working order. A striking example.
