in very good as-found condition. This clock has been in storage and the bronze is oxidized, however, it appears to be in great original condition. The movement is dirty, but sound and complete - will require service before operation. The fanciful bronze façade has a spread eagle at top, then flowers on the left and fruit on the right, and a gargoyle below. The right and left feet are two winged lions. The no. 6 porcelain signet has a small chip (not bad), the other 11 are perfect. Typical Kroeber quality; signed movement. Height 13" Reserve $400
