C.1885, French, Drocourt, Paris, for Henry Capt, Geneve, brass cased carriage clock, time, strike, repeat and alarm.The cannelee case on this clock has some fine oxidation, but the beveled glass is all perfect.

This case was polished to brass and lacquered around 20 years ago and oxidation occurred where the lacquer was thin. Overall it is an excellent example of Drocourts work and the best that Henry Capt had to offer in Geneva. Original platform intact. Height 6.5" Reserve $1400
