French clocks have long been admired for their extraordinary case design and this mystery clock is no exception. The bronze figure stands upon a black marble base with dore bronze mounts, which conceal the spring-driven movement. The great mystery behind this clock is that the pendulum is connected to the figures hand, not to the movement in the base.
Circa 1885
