C.1825, French, Portico Clock, Ormolu & marble, less top floral display (urn is there). This is a well made piece showing high class workmanship typical of the French at the time. The well made silk thread movement is clean and running. Note decorative cast pendulum of tow love birds. The blue/white/gold porcelain is attractive, however has had a chip repaired below the center shaft and the filler has ripple a little bit making the repair obvious (not so bad, but this description is provided for the perfectionist). The original name is intact on the dial: Courtin, á Cambray. Height 15 inches
