A FRENCH GILT-METAL MOUNTED ALABASTER MANTEL CLOCK

Circa 1880
The case surmounted by a personification of Music, with enamel decorated dial and side panels, twin train movement, bell and pendulum, stamped 684, under a glass dome (damaged), 48cm high overall

Condition report:

Parts cast in spelter, some of which has oxidised beneath the gilt surface. Other areas rubbed and som minor tarnishing.

A few other grazes and scuffs to the case. Lacking a door to the back.

The movement will need to be examined by a clock specialist, with a pendulum and key.

There is no guarantee of the working order of the movement.

The ebonised and velvet line plinth base is very faded and fairly worn.

Glass dome with a missing section at the side.
