French Sevres porcelain and bronze 8 day, time and strike figural mantel clock,
Anonymous (not verified)
24 October 2024
This elegant case retains a bright old patina on the castings, and the undamaged porcelain case is beautifully painted. The dial also is a multicolor porcelain behind fine beveled glass and fancy cast bezel. There is a small empty hole near the leg of the top cherub perhaps indicating that he had held something in his hands. The round Marti Medaille de Bronze movement, previously serviced in Indianapolis according to a sticker on the back door, again needs cleaning. Ht 20"
