Hi CW Gang:
I bought this about 8 years ago or so at a Garage sale for .50 cents. I still remember where the garage sale was......LOL. They said it worked, and it HAS been working all the time. It looks very Regal, Very Rocco in style and looks like metal -- but it is NOT. It is some type of plastic resin with kinda a metal coating on it as it does have weight to it. Also the reason they were selling it only for .50 cents was because the angel on the right top side is missing his wings. That is also where you can see what is underneath the coating.
Whatever ~ From the day I bought it to now, I have loved this clock. It sits on the desk not far from me and I would Never part with it !!! I love these finds !! About 10 inches tall!!
Thanks for LOOKING // LOVING !!

=====================
Rose - check around for Christmas ornaments/decorations with wings that might possibly replace the missing ones on your cherub. A lick of silver paint/nail enamel and you're good to go.
Thanks Efesgirl for the comment / love / suggestion!! Yeah, I might be able to find something. You know what too -- I just noticed now the other little guy near the bottom is missing his wings too. I NEVER noticed that till now......LOL
I like the idea of retrofitting a set of wings off Christmas ornament, very good idea
Thanks for the ~ LOVES ~
kerry10456 --> It is a GREAT Idea!!!
Efesgirl --> Thanks for thinking outside the box on this !!
You're welcome, Rose! It came to mind from seeing sooooo many Christmas decorations in the thrift shops mostly consisting of either Santas or cherubs.
Added this to my "Love at first sight" collection. I love the cherub without wings!
Thanks bijoucaillouvintage for the LOVE at first sight -- I look at it every day and still love it.
Thanks for the ~ LOVES ~
