Todays Rubbish

Recommended Posts

To days rubbish from ebay. Its modern, note how the seller describes it as French style. The movement is nothing more than a modern cheap Westminster chime; the type of movement you would expect in a mantle Westminster chime clock of today, the only deference is it has been adapted for a longcase.  Don’t waste your money.   

Gorgeous French Boulle style long case clock

But it was purchased from a dealer on Rue de Rossiers at the Paris antiques markets, so it must be old and genuine. :biggrin:

Maybe the gold coloured bits on the front aren't just gold paint, but actually solid gold.....................
