Description
and Game. An extraordinary antique French novelty 8-day clock and Mia game created for Black, Starr & Frost, complete with a stand and key. This clock showcases a French-crafted sterling and enamel hinged three-dimensional die-form case with six sides, a concealed removable gilt silver petite collapsible cup featuring a pair of six-sided dice crafted from wood fitted to the hinged lid and stored under a gilt silver locking cylinder.
