Description
This clock has a very uncommon French round plate quarter strike movement, striking the quarters on 2 coiled gongs (bim-bam), and then counting the hours only on the hour (it lifts the rear hammer out of the way for the hour strike). The movement carries only a number and no maker's stamp. The black dial has a bronze center and red numerals. It is running and striking. Quite an imposing clock. Height 20.5 inches
