Chinese Bracket Clock, Double Fusee: the engraved brass faceplate has leaf, bat, floral and dragon heads, along with 3 characters. It surrounds a 7 1/2″ porcelain dial. The brass back plate has 3 different characters engraved on it. Time and bell striking. The case looks like rosewood. Circa 1870’s.

(The clock is ticking, but the minute hand floats, so the strike could not be tested. The dial has a couple hairlines. The front glass is cracked.)

24″ x 14 1/2″ w/base
