The movement for this clock was made by Fritz Marti, it is an 8 day movement and chimes on the hour and the half hour. The Figure has a nice patina, the casing is made from multi colored marble. I do not know if the clock had garnitures, more than likely it did, but have since been separated from the clock. The key is not original to the clock.
It is 8.5" tall, 18" long, 6" wide and weighs 20 lbs. I am told that the figure represents a moon goddess by the seller, which one I don't know nor did she. The clock is one of the most quieter clocks of this era in my collection.
The clock is in perfect operating condition for it's age.
