This elegant piece is a true to original copy, reproduced with handmade cast moulds, accurate in every detail. It shows a reading muse, covered in a classical Greek robe - a popular motive in the early 19th century.
The clock has a quarz movement for one 1.5V battery. For a battery change the clock can be taken off (see 2nd photo).
There is a signature at the base which reads "TARANISO" - we cannot yet interpret the provenance.
