C.1900, French, Chiming on 8 Bells, large black Belgian marble clock.

C.1900, French, Chiming on 8 Bells, large black Belgian marble clock. Unlike lot 424, where the chime movement is added on to a strike movement, this movement was originally designed as a 3 train, but with the bells underneath, rather than above. When new, this was a very elegant clock; it has lost its original minute hand, and the hand shown in the photo does not have a proper French hub as required; also hammer tip for strike arm missing. It weighs 65 pounds and this clock must be picked up in person; no shipping. The marble case has a few chips and scrapes but is overall good looking. The bells sound great. Potential for the right person. Height 18 inches
