A very nice late 19th century gilt and silvered-bronze animated lighthouse clock. The rare and unusual gilt bronze case is shaped like an early lighthouse with decorative brickwork, a cast balustrade and several windows and a door. The whole sits upon a circular black Belgian marble base. The rotating top includes a timepiece, two thermometers and a barometer.

The four dials include a painted silvered time dial with Roman numerals, two painted silvered thermometer dials with semicircular tubes and a painted silvered barometer dial.

The eight-day time only movement is wound out the front and is adjusted for fast slow off the backplate.

The animation movement is located in the base, is wound out the side and rotates the top for several hours.
