Chiseled and gilt bronze, and blackened wood. Cylindrical case with two Turkish soldiers leaning against it. Rectangular wooden base with recessed leaf friezes, the corners decorated with lion heads, on paw feet. White enamel dial. Movement with anchor escapement, striking the 1/2-hour on bell. Pierced hands (repaired). 1 key.

Another model - but with the same design as the clock on offer - from a private collection, is depicted in: Jean-Dominique Augarde, Les ouvriers du Temps, Geneva, 1996, p. 301, Ill. 228. The bronze parts of that clock are attributed to Nicolas Bonnet, with a movement by Crosnier.
