Resting on a gadrooned base, it is further embellished with a Bacchic mask and flanked by statuesque figures of a lion and unicorn. A silver foliate cast carrying handle adds to its regal allure. Tom Tompion's expertise shines through in the movement of this baroque masterpiece. The clockwork mechanism within ensures precise timekeeping while also providing the enchanting feature of striking chimes. Capturing the essence of an era long gone, this miniature marvel transports us back to the late 17th century when such ornate timepieces were treasured possessions among nobility and aristocracy.
