The clock features an elaborate casing on its original wooden stand.

The lower part of the case is made from alabaster stone casing with rose quartz detailing.

The skirting is adorned with lovely metal detailing.

The upper is made from cast metal with a gilt finish. It features a seated statue of a woman.

The clock is accented with a lovely pink Sevres style porcelain dial.

The clock on stand measures 13.5 x 5.65 x 12.25 inches.

The clock appears to be in overall good condition physically. There are some signs of normal wear and age. Some of the colors appear to have been nicely retouched over the years

The clock has an 8 day time/strike movement by Japy Freres. The springs are good. Pendulum is missing, so it’s not been properly tested

The movement is also stamped with the retailer mark, “R&C (Richard et Cie) Paris & London”
