First off this is a heavy clock, around 85No. and will require special packing and shipping. Second, this is about the best looking marble clock we have seen. The white and pink marble contrast nicely with the gilt bronze mounts (all intact with original gilding), and cloisonne accents decorate the pillars, shields and dial center. The dial also has a fancy cast and gilt overlay to accent the numerals. Looks almost like a Moorish temple. The well made French striking movement is complete and sound, but will benefit from service. Height 29 inches
