Large Neoclassical style cut crystal and bronze dore clock, having urn-form finial, over winged grotesques and sunburst frame, encasing dial with Roman numeral hour markers, time-and-strike movement marked Vincenti and Cie., suspended above tapering crystal vase by protruding foliate branches, surmounted by musical cherubs, rising on cast base with lion mask roundel, accompanied by pendulum, broken suspension spring, not currently operational, approx 44.5"h, 17"w, 11"d, 66lbs
CR 1.12.25-As mentioned in the catalog description, the clock is not currently operational, it is accompanied by a pendulum and the bell and striker are present, the striker has been bent out of place to avoid striking the bell with force, this is typical on clocks such as this, as mentioned, the suspension spring is broken, the clock winds with extreme difficulty, indicating that the movement may be wound tight, as with all of our clocks, this piece would likely benefit from a professional adjustment and a thorough cleaning of the movement
