Catalog Description:

C.1825, French, Empire Mantel Clock in generally good condition, exceptions noted. This has a nice early unmarked movement with countwheel striking. The knife edge suspension has been replaced with a suspension spring. The dial has a spider web at 9. The pin broke off in the center shaft (it can be drifted out), and there is just a nut now holding on the minute hand. The case is veneered in crotch mahogany, with some losses and repairs. The mounts are well chased, but all of the gilding has been polished off. The well made grid pendulum has a dent on one side. Otherwise, the clock is sound and running, the movement cleaned and regulated. Height 18.5 inches
