Oil or Night Light Clock.
Probably France. Probably circa 1830.
 
31.5 x 12.5 x 17.0 cm. 2.0 kg.
Late Neoclassical oil clock featuring a partially gilded bronze figure of Atlas, who carries a clock with a translucent dial on his back instead of the globe. On the back is a swan-shaped vessel that can be filled with oil to illuminate the dial via a wick. The dial features a minute track, Arabic numerals, and Breguet hands, as well as gilded decorative elements . Found to be in working order during a brief test. The glass dial has been replaced; the movement currently sits somewhat loosely in the newer glass pane.
