revolving dial timepiece in excellent original condition. This is a nice quality piece, with separate silvered brass rings for the minutes and the hours. The case has a fired enamel coating of cobalt blue and with original gilding intact on the mounts. Note the 4 dolphins on the base which are holding the egg in their tails. The base itself has friezes with blue enamel backgrounds, overlaid with floral mounts. Has the appearance of a jewel. Runs OK. Height 10.5 inches
