Clock/Musical Box
By Brian Chesters

Hello all,

Coming up for auction next week in the UK is a French gilt brass mantle
clock by Le Roy of Paris. It stands about 12 inches high and has a figure
of a lady at a dressing table looking in a mirror. She is on a gothic style
base which is stood on a birds eye maple base containing a musical movement
which is signed H.Paur (3085) The whole thing is under a glass dome. The
estimate is 1000 pounds plus.

Has anyone ever heard of H.Paur? I have arranged to bid on the phone for
this as it looks quite nice.
