Description from the seller
Vintage Ornate Brass & Marble Mantel Clock - "The Hunt" - Hermle Movement (Cal. 130-070), Germany, 1981
An impressive and highly decorative vintage West-German mantel clock executed in the historical Rococo Revival style, topped with a detailed sculptural composition depicting a hunter on horseback with hounds ("Chasse à courre").
