Description: Antique French Alabaster Woman & Cherub at the Well Clock: T.O. with an unmarked movement and a porcelain dial. There is an alabaster brick style well with a cherub in it and a lady standing beside it. She looks as if she was trying to dump something in the well but her hands are empty. (This clock does not need a pendulum to run. The clock acts like it wants to keep on running but it cannot – always stops in a short time.) Sells as is, where is.
Dimensions: 17 1/2″ Tall
