This is a well made little clock of gilt bronze and marble. The variegated green marble base receives a sphinx, with the body of a cat and head a human, and in this case with a royal gilded headpiece. The lyre rises from the sphinx's back and holds aloft a small French timepiece with porcelain dial, surmounted by a spread wing eagle. Lots of "look" for a small item. Height 11 inches
