Westerstrands Swedish cartel clock, vintage.  A 20-inch tall cartel wall clock made of wood or composite and gilded.  It has large carved roses on the top and sides and the typical window for viewing the pendulum over the carved base.  The dial is painted metal with ornate gold hands and behind a convex glass in a brass bezel.  It is running and striking a bell on the hours and half-hours.  I would guess this was made in the latter half of the twentieth century; there is some loss of gilding on the tip carving.  $100-$200.
