- impressed LOUIS C. TIFFANY FURNACES/360 with the firm's monogram
dial impressed TIFFANY & CO./NEW YORK - gilt and patinated bronze and enamel with clear glass face
with winding key
Condition
Overall in very good condition. The enamel decoration all appears original and undisturbed and is in very good condition. The patinated metal surfaces throughout show light wear, rubbing with occasional minor losses to the patina, and surface soiling and discolorations consistent with age and gentle use. With winding key. The clock presents beautifully displaying strongly saturated coloration to its rich aqua color palette. When viewed firsthand the coloration of the enamel is richer and more luminous than seen in the catalogue photography. The clock movement is not guaranteed to run at the time of cataloguing and was not tested for accuracy of time, and may need service at the buyer's discretion.
