With winding key and pendulum. The clock has not been inspected by a horologist but it takes a wind and appears to run properly, chiming at each quarter hour as the minute had advances. The case is in good condition overall; some bronze finials leaning slightly askew but stable and some raising to the boulle marquetry around the base but mostly intact.
