Description

with pendulum movement, silk thread suspension, in restored condition. The case has been gold plated and about half the hour numerals have been restored with epoxy, painted over; minute numerals with some cracks. Note the time is indicated by the serpents tongue. Each lower panel has a painted porcelain plaque, the front one a floral spray and the other 3 of cherubs. The original silk style pendulum has been misplaced, and we will provide a new wire and bob kit that will need fitting. Rotary dial clocks with pendulum movements are quite rare. Height 16" $9000-12000
