C.1880, French, Conical Pendulum clock, white marble with bronze patinated spelter statue, gilt ormolu trim on the case, and with its original gilt wood accent base.. Condition: excellent restored condition, clean and running. Examples shown in Derek Robert's book on Mystery and Novelty clocks have their globes covered with stars, this has a few around the equator (see pages 123-130 for Robert's full discourse on Conical timekeeping). This is an uncommon model, the Huntress statue holding the globe. Note fancy engine turned dial center. Height 37 inches
