The 3 train movement mounted on a platform held aloft by two silvered columns with repousse garlands, and additional floral patterns on the plinth below, and the dial flanked by two bronze statues in native costumes. Retains original floral pendulum (silk thread) made out of the same pressed and silvered brass, and with a painted blossom in the center. The dial has damage and old repairs and will need attention. Tries to run but is filled with dust and in need of thorough cleaning NO DOME, hour hand replaced incorrectly. Lots of potential. Height 18.5'
