French Clock and Barometer Set
This beautifully carved clock and barometer set feature a unique style and impressive design. Deep relief carvings of a winged jester and nobleman peek out from the bottom of each case while faces at the top of each crest add wonderful whimsy to the clock. Turned and fluted columns flank each case and delicate foliate carvings on the doors add a beautiful balance to the design. The time displays on striking porcelain cartouche Roman numerals and the atmospheric pressure displays on a unique skeletonized aneroid barometer with a thermometer to display the temperature below.
An 8-day movement powers the clock which strikes the hour and half-hour on a tuned gong.
This clock set features a complete restoration and a one-year warranty.
