A suspended movement with a silver dial with Roman numerals and two keyholes hangs between the columns. A gilded bronze frame with shells surrounds the clock. Oak construction with rosewood facing and light wood insets. Circa 1840, Paris, France. Timepiece. Height 47 cm, width 21 cm., A vertical section of an object showing a wooden upper block with a smooth, polished dark brown surface and lighter brown trim, topped by a slightly overhanging cap in a medium golden-brown color. Below the block are a pair of decorative cylindrical capitals in a metallic gold color with embossed detailing, supporting a set of long, slender columns with a glossy dark brown wood grain and thin lighter brown vertical stripes.
