Description

We need not impress upon you the sovereign importance of punctuality!  This nineteenth-century French bronze carriage clock has both heft and color. The clock has romantic side panels, painted on ceramic with pastel shades, while the bronze case is bright with a colorful champleve enamel design. The top of the clock has a little glass window for peeking into the workings of time itself.

Bonus silver pendant (1 inch tall) included, if only to remind you to glance frequently at your lovely clock:
“Teach us … that we may feel the importance of every day of every hour as it passes.”—Jane Austen.
