AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

French, about 170-year-old Morez Oeil de Beuf wall clock in an outer oval-shaped curved wooden frame (top-lift) and an inner marquetry wooden frame with inlays and mother-of-pearl inlays, behind glass in front of a hexagonal wooden case. Dial: Alabaster (with a spot of glue between ten and eleven), signed "A Mougenot A Homécourt", Roman enamel numerals (blue on a white ground) in brass-framed cartouches. Key-wound pendulum movement in a contemporary iron frame with a half-hour strike on a bell (new bell spring included). The movement and striking mechanism are functional, but require revision.
