AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

French mantel clock in gilded régule from the late 19th century, surmounted by a musician playing the flute.

Notwithstanding, one foot is missing, but this does not prevent the clock from standing upright; the complete mechanism with the balance wheel will require adjustments to operate, as it stops after a while.
