Antique American Clocks
Upside-down skeleton clock,
With the glass dome this clock stands 23 inches tall
on a slate stand that supports the dome and a marble base for the brass clock.
The clock was made in China, although the porcelain
dial says "Huguenin a Paris".
The clock itself is the pendulum, with an inverted crutch held between two arms on the back post.
It is running, probably for 8 days; there is a large key included.
There is a chip out of the marble base on one side and a
small factory repair to the slate stand; there is glue around the brass ring on the marble base that could be removed.
same model sold at Fontaine's last fall for $500, and it had lost the inverted crutch and would not run.
