Empire-era mantel clock

  

Elegant French early 19th-century clock, of the so-called "drum" shape, resting on an architecturally designed patinated bronze base, richly decorated with gilded bronze ornamentation depicting a flowering vase framed by garlands. The circular dial, set within an openwork gilded bronze mount, features Roman numerals and two winding holes.

The mechanism needs servicing; the pendulum is missing.
