Antique, Fine Art and Collectables auction held on Wednesday 11th of May 2011
A handsome French 8 day carriage clock/barometer contained in a gilt and green enamelled case, the top inset a compass with thermometer, barometer and clock dial, 6" ILLUSTRATED
Sold for £640Condition report
The glass is broken and missing to the the top right corner of the clock side. The third column from the left on the front of the lot is a replacement and is plain rather than reeded like all of the others (including the ones on the back). There is a lot of wear to the faces of the clock, barometer and compass and some of the numerals are worn with the black paint missing from them, particularly 3 & 8 and some of the arrows on the barometer. The clock does not appear to work at all.
