An antique French mantlepiece clock featuring a bronze sculpture of a girl with a spindle. We have the key for this one and it winds up OK but we couldn’t get it to tick. It just keeps stopping.
Note. Due to it’s fragile nature this item will be sent in two packages. Glass dome sent first. Once received safely we will send the clock. This saves on returns if the very fragile glass dome gets broken in transit (in which case we refund you in full)
Available without the glass dome and base for 10% off the price and half the cost of postage. Ask for details.
