Catalog Description:

C.1900, French porcelain timepiece with extremely handsome case with raised gilt decoration and painting of seated woman on front, the case sides with geometric gold decorations. Eight-day pendulum movement of good French quality, numbered 1763, 512 and 44. There are a few repaired chips, mostly on gilt surfaces and some wear and crazing, but overall this is a colorful and nice case. The porcelain dial with blue roman numerals has tiny hairlines below the winding hole (hardly noticeable), and beautiful fancy gilt hands. The convex, beveled glass crystal has a significant chip at a lower edge, but does not obstruct the dial. The deficiencies we have described are not noticeable from a distance. Cute clock. Height 9". $175-$275
