European Furniture and Decorative Arts

The clock appears in overall fairly good condition. The gilt bronze is bright and fairly even throughout. There are a few scattered instances of rubbing to the case. The figures with visible casting seams and exposed screws holding the decorative elements together. The dial with some yellowing and minute key strikes from use. With a winding key and pendulum. Both chambers take a wind and the hands can be advanced manually. The clock does not strike and the clock has not been tested by an horologist for time keeping, duration, or accuracy. Additional images are available upon request.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
