Is it possible to post a new post with a picture that will help us with the description? If so, in the story box, refer to this "ornate french clock" post so we can link them together.

ORNATE FRENCH CLOCK by: mitch
Hi Russ, I have a very similar clock. The brass ornamentation at the top is different and the face is convex porceline with painted floral motifs forming a chain of semicircles inside of the numbers. The dial also has MACKAY CUNNINGHAM & CO. EDINBURGH (obviously the retailer) pinted on it and the hands are ornate brass. The stamp on the backplate is J Marti, also in script font. Other wise it appears to be the same as your clock. The origins of the clock are a little hazy but I know that it was given to my grand father by a friend who owned it. Apparently my father when he was a boy showed interest in the clock and at one stage was able to get it working. (he was born in 1913). Like you I unfortunately have no idea of its value. Good Luck
