an attractively gowned harpist shown at the harp, and in excellent original condition. This clock has been in storage for some time and the unsigned silk thread movement will need cleaning, however, the balance of the clock is very nice. The engine turned silvered brass dial is signed Le Roy, Paris (although this is unlikely the maker). A large and impressive piece certain to be of interest with those who like musical themes. A couple of the harp "strings" are missing. Height 22" $1000-1500
