Empire Rotating Clock
Rare Empire-period clock with a rotating circle depicting Chronos discovering time.

The serpent biting its own tail naturally symbolizes the cycle of time and eternity.
The movement and mechanism are of the highest quality and of great complexity.

The clock is in its current condition; the Sienna yellow marble base has been restored, and the mechanism needs to be cleaned by a clockmaker.
