To see a similar example, please refer to Page 257 of "Mystery, Novelty & Fantasy Clocks" by Derek Roberts
An extremely rare, matched set of late-19th century "Lighthouse" clock and barometer.
One of the ever-popular "French Industrial" series made by French clockmakers to celebrate the Industrial Age. These were made by Andre Romain Guilmet, the most renowned maker of this genre.
This automated lighthouse, with 8-day clock, has a simulated "Fresnel Lens" automated turret atop.
Stands about 28cm. tall (11 inches).
Fully professionally restored and in virtually perfect condition.
Note: we have several other French Industrial clocks available, including a double boiler, windmill, and other clocks. Check out musicaltreasuresofmiami for details.
