    I'm not well-versed on clocks but I can tell its French. Its a three-piece set, two candleabras and a mantel clock. The scenes are painted on porcelain, as well as the finial on the clock. Isn't it just grand? Been in the family for decades. I wonder how old it is? Early 1800's?

      Agree on age but know they did of these in the Victorian era too. So....

      Are there any names, marks or stamps anywhere on these three pieces? I don't know much about French Clocks. CW has a nice general write up on them. Very nice set!
