Antique mantel clock with garnish. Chime. S. XIX

Antique French mantle clock in perfect working order. Topped by a female figure holding ears of wheat, so it may be an allegory for agriculture or perhaps the Summer.

The clock dates from the late nineteenth century, between 1860 and 1890.We certificate by written the authencity of this piece. It will be send with the clock.
