Description

Compact carriage-style mechanical clock housed in a rectangular brass-toned architectural case with turned corner columns, stepped moldings, beveled glass panels, and an arched carrying handle.

The combination of ornamental casework and visible horological engineering gives the object both decorative and collectible appeal.
