An antique French mantlepiece clock featuring a bronze sculpture of a girl with a horn. We have the key for this one and it seems to be working OK over a couple of days but will likely need some attention and adjustment to keep perfect time in the long term (easy pendulum adjustment)
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)
