Stunning antique carriage clock. A Collectors piece, it displays very well with its original ormolu finished serpentine case with decorated carved in relief floral panels, standing on brass bun feet. It has its original white enamel dial with Arabic numerals, masked by an ormolu front plate. Unique shaped carry handle.
It is in good working order, comes complete with double ended winding key.
The clock is an 8-day French carriage clock. It keeps relatively good time and has an oval beveled viewing window to see the original platform balance in action.
Good condition for age, showing slight signs of age to the case.
