Description

The bronze case is in the shape of a brick fortress, ramparts at top, with gilt accents. This clock came out of a home and is a bit dirty and has sat idle for a long while. The silvered dial is tarnished and most of the numbers are worn off. The hands are original. The movement is marked "Pons, Chaumont". The waterfall effect is run from a second movement in the bottom of the case that is wound by rotating the right rosette to gain access. The waterfall movement is actuated at will by sliding a small lever on the right side of the clock; up for on. Both movements are dirty, but complete & the waterfall does work sluggishly. Service will be required. Height 13 inches
