C.1885, French, Industrial Series, "FOUNTAIN", automaton.

23 October 2024

There is a small stress crack in the circular brass base where it meets the black marble, but the clock is otherwise in good condition. There are several functions indicated: each side has a thermometer, Reaumur on one side and C/F on the other. The 8-day platform movement is in the bottom from of the fountain; the movement is intact and running. Above the clock is an Aneroid barometer with a silvered brass scale. Wound from the rear is a spring motor that powers a twisty rod that show in the gazebo above the central tower, and simulates the look of running water. This movement runs for only part of a day. An interesting clock. Height 18.5 inches
