French Religious with original fittings.

Cabinet is solid oak veneered with blackened fruit wood. The solid ebony moldings which are still authentic give this Religious an even more distinguished appearance.
This same quality and appearance is also reflected in the gilded moldings on the front on the corners of the beautiful Masks.
All ornaments form one whole. That can be called a rarity.
This timepiece is number 52 by Michel Barré The timepiece has running and striking mechanism which is powered by one winding spring. This is a typical feature of the very first Religiouses.
Many, many detailed photos of this great investment are available to serious buyers.
