A FAMILY HEIRLOOM, I AM NOW SELLING. THE TIME HAS COME !! Exceptional French Painted Porcelain and China Clock. It is so elegant and beautiful. (First of all I have very minimum knowledge of antique clocks, so below is everything I can understand from the physical clock itself). I really tried to take pictures that would help you. I do not know if it works, and do not wish to try. I do not know the age. It is old. But it has been a cherished possession. The beautiful porcelain piece of the couple in the garden is excellent condition. It is signed "Petit". The face, which I also think is porcelain, is excellent. On the bottom it states "Portland, Me." and the top, I don't know. It looks like a W and maybe a 10 letter word ending in "er & Co". The decoration, seen in one photograph, is heavy gold in relief, floral and leaf decoration, and is on the front, on the top, on both sides and on the back w it states, in gold, "Made in France". T is a lot of rich heavy metal appointments all over the clock, including the feet, in gold. The case is a lovely pink. No damage. Bevelled bezel, framed. The pendulum is heavy brass and has a number on it. 6070, or could be 8070. 6 inches long. T are three keys, two big ones and a tiny one. Weight of clock. About 9 pounds. Measurements: 10 inches tall. 11 inches wide. 5-1/2 inches deep. read more
