Description from the seller

This is a barometer clock, a single piece of equipment that combines a clock with a barometer and a thermometer. This specific type, with its ornate carved dark wood, is often referred to as a French or Black Forest style.
A rather interesting wall antique clock, which we suspect dates from the late 1800s. It is a good size in walnut and is in nice, tidy condition. The movement, which also has a strike on a gong, is French of nice quality and is working fine.
The clock had been serviced and regulated. We suspect this clock may be French; the writing on the working barometer is in French. There is a working thermometer too. It is not a common shape and certainly a rather special example with all three items in the carved case. The pretty hands are brass, and the numbers on the exposed face are enamel.
This will suit any type of interior.
