Description

clock in very good condition. L'Epee obtained a license to sign the dial and rear case cover with the name LeRoy, Paris; the movement itself with L'Epee stamp. This clock seems to be in good order and has been running here for several weeks....a little tricky setting the pendulum in motion, but once it settles down, the brilliants swing briskly from side to side. The case is imitation marble with cobalt blue finish (some minor blemishes), and the ormolu trim is all brightly gilded. When new, these retailed for just under $5000, about the cost of an old one. This one has lots of flash for a considerably lower estimate. Height 22"
