C.1890, French, Patinated Spelter figural clock of a boy in loin cloth holding a ball on a rope, the ball containing a good bell striking, platform movement.

This is a LARGE and impressive clock, so be sure to look at the dimensions; minor wear to high spots on the statue, and a couple of runs in old touch-up paint, but overall in very good condition; Height 23"
