[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 2700555, member: 5833"]Depends on what you mean by 'some age'. She looks very high quality to me, which suggests to me she is not new. She has been around long enough to lose her clock & pedestal. I don't know when or if they stopped making this sort of thing. A couple of results from a search for 'Ceres ormolu clock'. Second one may have been intended more broadly as the personification of Agriculture, given the other decorations.
