A gorgeous piece. Marvelous quality.</em></td>

We offer a small, yet absolutely magnificent miniature timerpiece. The timepiece is held in the air a silver man with enameled turban. The timepiece has a wonderfully enameled dial, and above this is a silver and enameled bird. To the rear there is an enameled group.

The man holding the clock stands on a conical enameled base with a series of scenes. Between these are little plaqus of silver and enameled heads of puttis.

The whole magnificent piece is supported by little winged putti heads.

The crystal over the face of the heavily enameled clock face is probably rock crystal.

We have not disessembled the clock so we are not aware of the maker, and, in additon, the hands are no longer there.
