H & F Paris brass garniture, ca. 1870.  I have to think this clock and candelabra set have been replated, they just look too good.  I think it also has been lacquered to prevent oxidation.  There are a few issues: There is a slight fracture in the brass top piece near where the birds are roosting, but it is not a complete break.  There is some copper oxidation on the birds and one wing was broken off and reattached.  One arm on a candelabra is broken but stays in place.  The dial is signed with the retailer but it is incomplete.  The pendule de Paris is signed H & F Paris, and numbered; it is running and striking on the hours and half-hours without issue.  There is a slightly bowed and beveled glass in the bezel; there is even a candle snuffer!  The clock stands 14.25 inches tall, the candelabras are 16 inches.  As garnitures go, this one is as nice as they come.  $200-$500.
