About the Item

Early 19th century Austrian Biedermeier library walnut alabaster mantle clock Standing on a rectangular wooden base with concave corners, six small alabaster feet and a floral Biedermeier style brass vignette a rectangular portico with a pair of alabaster columns and a three-section mirorred backplate holding the circular walnut and ebonized wood clock case which is topped by an alabaster neoclassical vase.
