Fees

Unusual French mantel clock timepiece of Persian taste, the Vincenti movement with platform escapement and striking on two gongs, the back plate stamped Maple & Co. Ltd., Paris, the 3" white dial within a pagoda style pillared case engraved all over with figures amidst stylised foliage, with cushioned plinths and surmounted by a domed cornice with baluster turned finial, 10" high

More Information

Generally this clock is in reasonable condition but a little tired, the dial with worn inscriptions and the case with considerable loss of gilding, the movement trains are both working but the striking is a little haphazard, see images for guidance, personal viewing always advised where possible
