About the Item

A charming late 19th century French engraved miniature oval carriage clock with original travelling case.

The time is indicated by a pair of finely cut blued-steel hands. The eight-day single barrel movement has a silvered cylinder platform escapement with hairspring balance and regulation. The clock comes with its original leather-covered wooden travelling case with a glazed viewing window to the face and is lined on the inside including the pocket in which the winding key is stowed.
