French Louis XVI style bronze dore mantle clock, late 19th c., surmounted by a seated putto with lyre, above shaped case with raised floral bouquets and cast foliates, centering glazed dial viewing door, the dial with porcelain Roman numeral hour markers, time-and-strike movement marked S. Marti et Cie., rising on pierced scrollwork base, accompanied by pendulum and key, broken suspension spring, not currently operational, approx 17.75"h, 17.75"w, 10.75"d, 32.5lbs
CR 1.6.26-As mentioned in the catalog description, the clock is not currently operational, the suspension spring is broken, as mentioned it is accompanied by a pendulum and well-fitting key, the bell and striker resound nicely when manually struck, the clock winds with extreme difficulty indicating that it may be wound tight, as with all of our antique clocks, this piece would likely benefit from a professional adjustment and a thorough cleaning of the movement
