Catalog Description:

C.1890, French, Patinated Spelter State of Summer Breeze, shelf clock now with a suspension holder added to her right hand, (nicely done) from which is suspended an upside down 30 hour 'pendule'. The porcelain dial has a couple of cracks visible in the detail image, and is also interesting in that the Roman numerals are red, while the chapter and minute markers are black. Seems to tick OK. Originals like this are worth several thousand dollars. Height 15"
