Superb French carriage clock (pendule d\'officier). The case is quite decorative.
The antique gold gilding is magnificent & so is the decorative \"appliques\". The handle is a snake biting on its tail. The enamel dial has a small enamel damage between 8 & 9, well hidden when the bezel is closed. Otherwise it\'s scrumptious. Perfect Louis XIV hands. Platform escapement, strikes 1/2 & 1 hour.
Translucid back, very heavy bronze case (over 6 pounds). Movement, dial, case are marked France. The movement is also marked: Selsi, 13 jewels, 2 adjustments.
9\" tall with the handle up, 5 1/2\" wide & 4 1/2\" deep.
An impressive \"pendule d\'officier\". The clock runs well, strikes & keeps fairly good time, but it has not been serviced for a long time. A pricey luxury object of beauty.
. NO RETURN.
