French Multicolored, Floral Motif,
Gold and Porcelain Shelf Clock
|
This lovely unsigned, Paris-made piece features an eight-day-running,
silk thread suspension movement with a beautiful bell strike.
The porcelain dial with Roman numerals is original as are the hands.
There are a few losses to the porcelain flowers, but this is not unusual
for
these delicate clocks. The pendulum is an appropriate replacement.

This clock keeps
excellent time for a silk thread suspension movement.
It has received a complete overhaul and has new mainsprings!
