Switzerland Shelf Tape

Catalog Description:

C.1870, Swiss, Annular Dial clock, opalescent ligHeight violet enamel over silver, with hand painted cameo displays. The silver has a gentle damascene pattern that reflects through the translucent enamel. The case hardware is gold over silver; the silvered brass dials have oxidation and could stand professional restoration. The top has 3 ladies in various, while the front cameo shows a lady doing knitting or needle point, and the enamel work is exquisite. Originally there was a small gold chain that hung in 3 swags around the dial (the loops are there and this could be replaced). The jeweled lever movement is in good running order. These were expensive gifts when new. Height 71/4" $3,800-$4,200
