A burst of painted flowers, rich burgundy and green glaze, and a glimpse of the clockwork through the dial make this turn-of-the-century mantel clock a striking display piece.
This antique Victorian era clock features an Ansonia movement housed in a Royal Bonn porcelain case made in Germany. The case is marked “La Manche” and has flowing Rococo lines reminiscent of Royal Bonn’s La Riviere and La Bretagne styles. Hand-painted flowers and gilt accents decorate the case, while the porcelain dial displays Roman numerals and a visible open escapement. The hinged glass bezel opens as shown in the photos.
Approximate dimensions: 14" W × 4" D × 14" H.
Please examine the photos for condition, including wear to the gilt decoration and crazing visible on the back. Running and striking performance have not been verified; operation is not guaranteed. Any key or pendulum is included only if shown in the photos.
