A fine early 19th century French Empire period ormolu Mantel Clock, the female figure seated upon a leviathan, the dial with Roman numerals and above Classical plinth style base with allegorical trophy etc., the eight-day gilded movement striking on a bell, 52cm high CONDITION REPORT: The gilding on the clock appears to have darkened and is tarnished. There is only one hand on the front of the dial. The 12 o'clock numeral appears worn and rubbed. There appears to be no pendulum and therefore the clock is not tested and it is not known if it works although taking the bell off and looking at the movement it looks like it could benefit from a good clean. There is also no rear door covering the movement (possibly glass?) The clock appears to be a very high quality example but we advise that work is probably needed.
