Description: HERE IS A RARE TURN OF THE CENTURY HAND PAINTED COIFFE LIMOGES MANTEL CLOCK IN ROCOCCO STYLE. IT FEATURES A LOVELY RELIEF OF ENAMEL FLOWERS AND BEADING ON THE FRONT (SEE IMAGES). THE PORCELAIN IS IN GREAT CONDITION WITH NO CHIPS CRACKS OR HAIRLINES. THE CLOCK (NEW HAVEN) HAS A BEVELED GLASS FRONT AND IS MISSING THE KNOB WHICH TURNS THE HANDS. I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS IN WORKING CONDITION. A SMALLER EXAMPLE OF THIS CLOCK (WITH NO WORKS) IS ILLUSTRATED IN GASTON'S COLLECTOR'S ENCYCLOPEDIA OF LIMOGES (3RD ED) ON PAGE 95 AND LISTS FOR $1500-$2000. AMERICAN CLOCK MANUFACTURERS IMPORTED PORCELAIN CASINGS FROM EUROPEAN COMPANIES SUCH AS DRESDEN AND LIMOGES AROUND THE TURN OF THE CENTURY.
