Napoleon III era gilded bronze mantel clock in brass with a gentleman and his dog in a niche; it is non-working and requires adjustment, with a mechanical eight-day movement, winding key, and half-hour strikes with a gong.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Magnificent high-end mantle clock in bronze gilt from the Napoléon III era. It depicts a gentleman with his feet and his dog and a niche behind him
The clock has not been re-gilded; this is indeed the original gilding
The mechanism is complete with key and pendulum, but will need adjustment as the clock stops after a while
Very pretty gilded bronze clock, see photos
