Charming old mantle clock.
I took this clock to repair shop and it will tic, but is out of balance and stops. Clock repair store said the French mechanism can be fixed. The clock mechanism was shifty and clock shop tightened it. The works, statue and bonze are a married piece. Not sure Gong is present. About 10 years ago someone worked on the clock and she worked. At that time they replaced the glass beveled cover and it is now scratched.
*S...tatue: is not original and has a slightly different patina and rests on the clock.
*Works: Embossed circle emblem Reads: *MEDAILLE De Bronze & In cursive: L Marti and a tiny et Cis. Imprinted on the back of the clock mechanism is an oval with 0/7 inside and 1804 is embossed. The photo with my finger down the inside of the clock, is showing where maybe the Works are attached to the clock. I really do not know.
*Pendulum: New photo with the back numbers: D-747 and O 511
*Dial: there IS a nick and faint crack, plus wear to the numbers. The nick is near the rim on 10th hour. I can barely feel the crack with my finger nail. It is roughly 1/2" - 3/4".
15" height 15 1/2" long7" wide across the bottom feet
