Officer Alarm Clock

Brass table clock with carrying handle, painted all around and on top with motifs of birds and plants. Brass hands cut by hand and heavily ornate, large baton hand for setting the alarm time, enamel dial with black numbers.

Such alarm clocks with a carrying handle were often found in a leather case for travel and were also referred to as "officer's alarm clocks". If they were used militarily, they had good accuracy.

Manufacture: Late 19th century
