Catalog Description:

C.1890, French, Marble and Bronzed Spelter conical pendulum mantel clock, in generally good condition, with some restoration, and needing additional attention. This is a large clock, the white base standing 13", and the statue of Rebecca with her water jug standing 22.5". The pendulum ball has been repainted and needs a better finish. The statue has her index finger replaced and broken again, with some filler in place; bottom threaded stud is missing; balance of statue has good patina, with minor scrapes. The movement itself is complete and sound and strikes the hours on a bell. The pusher that drives the pendulum is a second hand, bent to fit and is not working properly. Still these items can all be addressed by a competent workman to render the clock worth much more. Height 35.5" $4,000-$6,000
