Description from the seller

Magnificent twisted-wood column clock, Louis Philippe era 1830-1850, 53 cm
Fronton with a floral motif in mother of pearl and carved wood
Japy Frères et Cie movement, 1855, grande médaille d'honneur
Original Napoleon III movement
Gilded bronze balance with the effigy of a cornucopia
White bronze dial with palm leaf design (A genuine collector's piece …)
With its key, its pendulum
In satisfactory condition to restore: the mechanism works perfectly but the pendulum will need to be reattached (revision of the attachment); a small restart adjustment will therefore be necessary.
