French Style Bronze Acrobat Figure Sawtooth Gravity Driven Falling Mantle Clock

About the Item

Large Bronze Acrobat Figure Sawtooth Gravity Driven Falling Clock w Marble Base Here is another very interesting clock from our collection. It's a large bronze statue clock, an acrobat figure juggling a clock set on a sawtooth rod. The figure stands on a marble base. The clock is driven by its own weight as it slowly falls down on the sawtooth. Time shows on a nice porcelain dial with Roman numerals. Once it reaches the bottom, you simply push the clock up to reset it. The complete clock stands about 33" tall and 7-1/2" wide. Although this clock is not an antique, it's will worth for collecting just because of its unique design. If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.
