Description

and in good original condition. This large heavy clock has received good care in its life, with some minor wear. The onyx along the top and bottom edges of the base has a slight roughness. The enameled panels are perfect. The porcelain dial is perfect and the hands are original. The movement looks to have been recently serviced. The beveled glass panel in the left side has a crack in the upper corner. The gilt figures on top are especially nice; a minstrel playing a lute to a girl sitting, wearing a ruff. The clock retains its original enameled mercury pendulum. Height 21.50 inches
