Description
Condition: Most of the gilding has been rubbed off my a fastidious cleaning woman (still some in the crevices). The detail on the Shepard's body is exceptional, down to the finger nails and toe nails, plus leather sandals. The yellow with dark veins marble is very good with only minor edge and corner abrasion. The well made countwheel bell-strike movement with silk thread suspension, is signed Pons. Please refer to Clocks magazine, January 2000 issue, an advertisement by Roderick Antique clocks, this clock is offered for Sterling 3250, or about US6000 at today's rates. Ht: .23"
