Antique Wm. Gilbert Gabled Beehive Mantel Clock~30 Hour

This Wm Gilbert Gabeled Beehive Mantel 30 hour runs steadily but sensitive to level of surface. It is about 10" x 4 3/4" x 13 1/2". It is 19th Century and has some wear. Some spots of veneer loss. The dial looks original, both pattern and material. It has some discoloration on the bottom and less noticeable with door closed. The reverse paining looks great with hardly any "holes". I dont know the history but appears a maintenace tune-up would be beneficial.Great restoration possibilities or Tempus Rusticus. Please review the photos and reach out with any questions. Thanks A few words may be in order regarding our preowned Antique & Vintage clocks.  The clocks that come to us are very old, dusty and have likely been in storage for years. We do not service, repair, oil or perform any maintenance on the clocks we list.  We test the our clocks for a couple of days. Lately, we try to video and post it in the listing. Any antique or vintage clock would benefit from a professional cleaning and/or service to be scheduled every two years. Additionally, no matter how carefully we protect our clocks in the packaging process, handling can sometimes result in throwing off the time and strike accuracy and necessitates a reset upon receipt. It doesn’t happen much. The same goes with damages from mishandling. The frequency of this is low but it happens. Should this occur save all of the packaging and take photos of the packaging and damage. I usually can initiate a quick refund if I have these in my possession for a damage claim submission. While, not a disclaimer, this is just to make certain our customers understand and appreciate that while reliable these are somewhat delicate
