in a white alabaster case with incised pattern on the front and sides. Has a typical Farcot patent movement, with double escape wheel and "chaff cutter" escapement. This clock came to us from storage, and although it will tick and eek out a strike on the rear bell, it is dirty and would benefit from service. These cases are soft and often in a state of distress, however, this one, other than minor edge chips is in very good order. Doll moves front to back. Height 13" $1000-1500
