This masterpiece dates to the late 1800s and was made by Planchon Au Palais Royal.

The clock features a gorgeous Orientalist design with an Islamic-inspired onion dome on top.

The sides and base have etched designs with depictions of people and animals.

The clock is quite large and measures 11.25 x 11.25 x 24.5 inches.

It appears to be in overall good condition. Some minor tarnishing from age, but nothing out of the ordinary.

The movement was last serviced in 2019. We recently tested it and it ran and chimed. The chime has a nice deep tone.

Please note that any mechanical clock that is shipped might require adjustments upon arrival. Thus time accuracy is not guaranteed.
