Provenance
Vente Christie’s à Paris, le 14 avril 2015, lot 331
Condition
The illustration is accurate, good overall condition despite the inevitable dents, scratches and marks due to the age and use.
The gilding has been gently cleaned, the clock comes with a rewind key and a pendulum. The movement looks complete although we do not guarantee the working order. Both figures of the candelabras were holding something which is now missing; an arm of light is slightly distorted. Very decorative, a rare model.
