Vincenti & Cie brass and ceramic table clock, ca. 1900.  A brass clock, 14 inches high, with a painted ceramic tile of a windmill below the dial, a florally decorated dial, and a small decorated vase with musical instruments at the top.  There are brass flower garlands on each side of the case.  The consignor says this case was refinished in 2002. Note that the dial has a hairline crack running through the 9; the dial glass is beveled and flat.  The pendule de Paris movement bears the Vincenti & Cie logo along with a “Made in France” stamp, indicating that it was manufactured after 1891.  It is running and striking on a cathedral gong.  A nice example by a highly sought-after maker.  $250-$500.
