Aubert (French, 19th c.), white enamel dial with Roman numeral hour markers, time-and-strike movement marked F.

Condition
05.17.24: In my opinion regarding LOT 3108: As described there is a restoration to the marble located towards the center left of the front edge of mantel clock be, from a visual examination, I note that the clock and garnitures are presently intact, with typical minor chips to edges of marble concentrated at the corners, there is a minute hairline extending from one of pierced holes in the face, as well as a minor chip on the edge of the hole likely original to its creation as the enamel is applied over the chip, functionally, the half hour chime and bell are operational, the clock is lacking a pendulum, and the time winding spring is broken, preventing the clock from being able to operate or keep time
