This extraordinary "Eiffel Tower" clock, fretworked and chiseled, has a fantastic scenic realism. The idea of "studding" the front of the structure, thus giving it a luminescent effect, is certainly unique. Certain details, certainly the result of the author's imagination, make this artifact unique and unrepeatable.The pendulum movement, signed "LTABLISSEMENT H. MOLLE PARIS" and "AD. MOUGIN deux médailles", is of excellent quality and was built in Paris around 1870. It has two time trains with toothed barrels and strikes the hours and half hours on a bell. The escapement is of the "anchor" type regulated by a beautiful pendulum with metal suspension.France - early twentieth century.Measurements: height cm. 100 width cm.41 depth cm.42.5
