It has it's original integral base upon which mythical creatures carry the clock above stylised waves. The front of the clock is fretted to allow the pendulum to be glimpsed swinging within.

The pretty dial is enamel on copper and has separate hour and minute rings.

The French movement is by Japy Freres and has the makers mark on the backplate. It is of the makers usual high quality and is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is a replacement. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. Click the video clip below to hear the bell and watch the clock running!

About us - All of our clocks are original antiques, we source most of our clocks in France, Belgium, the Netherlands and the UK. We prefer to buy our clocks in original 'dirty' condition. We then clean the cases using a technique we have developed over many years. We employee two qualified clockmakers who overhaul the movements. Movements are thoroughly tested until we are satisfied that they will run trouble free.
