French Crystal Regulator w/Globe Top: the 8 day time with half hour bell striking movement is marked Marque in an oval with a bell shape and letter S. The letter on the bell’s left side is not visible. Also marked QTEA and numbered 17109. The globe on top slowly revolves when the clock is running. The globe is marked Newtons New Cerrestrial Globe. The date is slightly worn, but looks like 1867. A band of porcelain on metal Roman numerals is on the brass frame. They are red and black, each going from 1 to 12. The 4 1/2″ porcelain dial with moon phase is pristine. With key.

21 1/2″ tall and running at this time
