Art Deco French pottery mantel clock,1930s decorated with pheasants

Art Deco Mantel Clock in marble ,ceramic and chrome, french circa 1930smeasure to be advisedIMPORTANT NOTE - We buy clocks for their physical appearance rather than if they work, and the presence of a nice figure on top helps. However, when purchasing clocks we do try to ascertain whether a clock is in working condition or not - which is not always easy to do on the spot, and we will pass on to its new owners the accompanying bell, pendulum and key. Consequently, we can never guarantee that a clock is working, or that it will continue to work after sale, (the original guarantee probably ran out 80 years ago). We are unable to test movements and consequently we can only indicate whether we have had a clock working for a short test. It is possible that the mechanism has been replaced sometime in the clock's life, it is possible that the original pendulum, bell or key have been lost and replaced, it is also possible that we will not be able to supply a pendulum, bell or key which fits correctly, especially as some clocks have to be purchased without its components. As a consequence when buying a clock from us, please feel free to ask us if it is working. We will try to give an honest opinion of the condition of a clocks workings, but we are not clock experts and NO GUARANTEE IS GIVEN. This type of clock movement has been in production for a long time and are well known to be very robust. Generally speaking if a clock has not suffered any broken parts (rare), and that we are able to get it running for a short time, it may be possible to get it running with just a simple clean and service. We unfortunately cannot perform this service, but there are plenty of clock repairers who can. Alternatively, if a clock movement is beyond repair, it is possible to have a clock movement replaced with a battery run quartz movement, which means a beautiful art deco clock will be able to keep time perfectly without having to wind it up.
