Nice French Antique Black Slate Mantle Clock With Drummer Figure

Very nice and French black slate mantle clock, with bronze coloured (not bronze) period soldier drummer figure on top. This figure is part of what looks like period battle scene with damaged cannons, cannon balls etc. Perhaps it is commemorating a glorious French battle? The figure is in nice condition with a lovely colour (The Figures feet is coming loose  a little from the top so will needs reattaching).

This interesting clock has a 8 day movement which is ticking away but sold as not working. The spring is good and it comes with a pendulum and winding key. The dial is enamel and looks again in very nice shape.

Due to the weight of this item I will remove the figure and pack them safely separately.

 Please view the photos as they are part of the overall description to make sure that you are happy. Sold as seen, incomplete and not working for parts/restoration only with no guarantee or returns. A fine looking French clock and a great project which is priced accordingly.
