This is the largest clock in my collection, weighing in at 55 lbs. The clock is 26.75 inches long and 11 inches high. The last picture gives you some idea of it's size.
The clock features a woman with painted detail and gold wash, and two Afgan or Borzoni hounds. The dogs also show signs of their original gold wash. The clock part is in shape of a diamond with brass button hour markers.
The clock movement was replaced at some time in the 50's and the clock was modified for the 50's movement. The movement has been replaced with a quartz movement. I retain the 50's movement and the original hands.
The clock sits on top of my lawyers book case in my home office.
