ELEGANT ALABASTER MANTLE CLOCK

With an eight-day mechanical movement, made by the renowned French maker, Japy Freres. The movement bears the seal by the mak- er, dating the clock to the 1880s. The movement strikes the 'hour' and 'half-hour' on a tuned bell. The alabaster case has decorative gilt ormolu accents in roman style and has a transfer of a classical figure with a harp. A blue and gold painted urn sur- mounts it. The alabaster dial has painted flowers with Roman numerals. The clock rests on its original gilt wooden stand.
