Description
Figural Conical Pendulum Mystery Clock. Standing gilt spelter figure of a standing robed maiden, in her left hand she holds up the pendulum. Hanging from 3 chains, under a large silk thread suspension cluster is a purple luster sphere containing the spring driven time only movement (numbered 8084) with a conical platform at the top, a long stalactite post drops in the center into the spinning horizontal bar at the top of the verge; the dial of the sphere has applied brass Roman hour numerals. The spring inside the movement drives the mystery escapement at the top as the conical bob hanging in the center swings around clockwise. A very rare and unusual clock in good working condition. 20.5 in. high.
