Lot 503 , A French Art Deco two colour onyx and marble clock garniture, height 18.5in., vases 8in.

A French Art Deco two colour onyx and marble clock garniture, surmounted with the figure of a panther, height 18.5in., vases 8in.
Estimate £300-400

Slight oxidisation spotting to the bronzing of the panther, a fine hair line crack running in the onyx above the dial and another further fine hair line crack towards the right hand side of the top of the onyx, these are partly concealed within the graining of the material, dial in good original order, one or two fine scratches to the glass of the door, movement complete with pendulum and key, runs but not tested for timekeeping. Both side ornaments with a little oxidisation to the gilt pillars and both have a repaired crack running through the middle of the onyx front. Movement runs then stops so will need attention.
