C.1890, French, Guilmet, Paris, Swinging Arm Clock, patinated spelter statue on red marble base.

22 October 2024
Condition: seems to run Ok. The movement with the signature imprint of Guilmet and serial number 3117, has a pivoted pendulum, carefully shaped so as to be contained between the winding arbor and one pillar, thus avoiding damage to the 'scape wheel during transit. The dial has hairlines and a chip near 8. The gilt and steel arm bears serial number 3191, so is not perhaps original to the movement. The stud in the bottom of the statue has been re-newed and is not in the center of the base. Still a decorative swing clock. Height 29.5 inches
