C.1870, French Empire 4-Column mantel clock in mahogany with ormolu mounts, bezel and pendulum, in generally good as-found condition.

C.1870, French Empire 4-Column mantel clock in mahogany with ormolu mounts, bezel and pendulum, in generally good as-found condition. The base molding has a gouge that needs attention, the glue joint between the very top trim and the portico ceiling is failing and will need attention; minor corner losses of veneer, but still overall very good looking. The well made bell strike movement bears no marks, and is running and striking. Fancy shell pendulum has wide mouthed dolphins with long coiled tails. Very attractive. Height 19 1/2"
