Japy Freres & Cie bronze figural mantel ca. 1870.   A 17-inch metal figural clock that has been repainted in bronze with gold highlights.  A nice porcelain dial and Breguet hands behind a beveled flat glass.  The pendule de Paris movement bears the Japy Freres logo.  There is no pendulum for this clock but it was tested with a borrowed pendulum and it ran and struck as expected.  French pendulums can be obtained from TimeSavers.  $100-$200.
