Jannin Morbier, ca. 1880?  A Morbier clock with a brass repousse dial with painted flowers and a signed porcelain dial.  There are numerous hairlines in the dial as well as chips; it is signed “Jannin, á Thizy” over a small floral embellishment.  Thizy is a small town near Lyon, France; Jannin may be the retailer rather than the maker.  The gold hands are likely replacements.  The metal case sits on a modern metal bracket with two 8-lb oblong weights that I think are replacements. The pendulum is made from folding metal strips.  It is running and striking a large iron bell on top on the hours and half-hours. $150-$300.
