with silk thread movement. This has the wonderful theme of "culture", the center pedestal with a stack of books and a rolled scroll; the pedestal at left with an incense burner, another scroll and a two sided cup. And the featured lady playing a horn, held in her right hand, and holding her music score with her left hand. This clock took a tumble at some time and the dial is with hairlines and a chip by 5, and the hands, though old, are too long for this dial, and have had their tips cut. No pendulum. Lots of potential. Height 14" Reserve $2200
