The movement has also been fine-tuned and nowadays the clock works like new.This item boasts an architectural design with a solid and simple wooden box that stands on a molded base. At the top we can see a smart semicircular crowning piece with carved decoration and small golden bronze rosettes. The two charming cherubs that flank the clocks face are also made of this metal; the small sculptures depict two naked kids sitting on short columns. The figures are quite beautiful and ingenuous, and match perfectly the rest of the bronze details that surround the face.The boxs sides are adorned with two golden bronze classic masks depicting womens faces. The overall is very decorative and boasts an unparalleled richness; the lovely contrast between the dark and noble wood and the shining metal embellishes the design even more.
