Lot 100

The movement appears intact and clean but its physical or running condition has not been assessed by a horologist and we have no information on its service history.

The case is generally well presented. The shaft of the scythe held by the putto is bent out of alignment; a strip of brass fascia to the upper left side is loose (requiring flattening and pinning down); and there a few scattered and inconspicuous slight losses to the cut brass inlay and occasional superficial blemishes to the simulated tortoiseshell ground. The bracket is in similarly good condition.

A winding key is present but not a key for the lock to the front door of the case.
