This is a table-top clock, made of bronze in the Eclectic
style. The clock mechanism is fixed into a bronze rounded body which has been
placed on a green glass base that is held by a bronze mount with two goats’ and
two birds’ feet and bronze ornaments: rocaille and acanthus leaves, and two
goats’ heads. The top of the clock body is decorated with a vase of the same
kind of green glass with bronze ornaments.
The clock dial is of white
enamel with a painted flower garland. The hours are marked in black in Arabic
numerals (1-12), whilst the minutes are marked by dots.
You are all set!
