C.1840, French, Pons, Empire Style Mantel clock, case of carved and pierced white alabaster, the pendulum a cast and chased butterfly, showing thorough the piercing. Condition: The well made bell strike movement is signed with Pons touchmark. The case has some losses at the corners at top and bottom, and they have been rounded off a bit. Still for its age and the fragility of alabaster, it is in very good condition. Height of clock = 18Ò Height with dome and base = 23 inches
