CONDITION: Sold "as is". These rectangular domes were often used for French portico and French gilt metal clocks. If those clocks are found with no bezel with glass over the dial and no rear door, these clocks were originally under a dome to protect their movements and gilt decoration from dust and dirt. Unfortunately a large percentage of them have now lost their domes and replacements are difficult to find.
