The case is crafted from richly veined rouge griotte marble, a popular material in 19th-century French decorative arts. The ornate face features gilt Roman numerals and decorative hands. It is also adorned with elaborate gilt bronze (ormolu) mounts, including intricate leaf and scroll motifs on the base and feet.
