Unsigned French figural mantel clock, ca. 1870.  A green marble base with brass trim supporting a female figure playing a mandolin with a bird on her shoulder, 26 inches high.  The statue has the original bronze finish with no breaks or missing pieces; the brass trim pieces on the base have been lacquered.  The marble needs to be cleaned but I see no cracks or chips.  A decorated porcelain dial behind a beveled flat glass.  The unsigned time-and-strike movement with external count wheel is running and striking on a bell without problem.  $150-$300.
