This is a very striking clock, with lots of contrast between the dark blue and the white area that carries the flowers. The case retains its Bonn trademark, along with the name La Grace, which seems to be a factory mis-mark, as the clock is definitely a LaTour. The case is very clean, ticks and strikes; could stand oiling. Height 10 inches

Ansonia Clock Co., Royal Bonn, “LaTosca”, ca 1904. This is another colorful, tall case. It is 14.5″ high, and 10″ wide. Colors, like No. 387, start with red-rose on top, changing to light green then dark green on the base. A lion’s head on top, small open space might be a snake? or varmit of some kind, on top of an urn which changes to a tree? Strange, it could be anything. The flowers are white, yellow, and red. The usual gold accent painted mostly around the base. Ly-Ansonia, page 635.

Ansonia Clock Co. Royal Bonn porcelain clock, “LaTosca”, ca 1904. The name is fired into the case. One of the larger cases at 14 1/2 inches high, 10 inches wide. A very attractive medium green with hand painted pink roses, white and yellow flowers, on the front, top, and sides. A great case design, shape of shells used top and bottom, columns on 4 sides, and just enough gold go make it show nicely.8 day, strikes half hours. 2 piece porcelain dial has a half dozen small, dark hairlines. If I were keeping the clock I would put the dial in an ultrasonic bath and the hairlines should disappear, or you can get a replacement dial from Timesavers. While you are ordering get a new back door as this one is not correct. You will also need a small piece of cork to attach the door screw into. This is a simple fix that I could probably do if time allowed. No chips, cracks or repairs. It is having difficulty running long, bad out of beat. With the changes noted this clock should be worth $1200 or more. Ly-Ansonia, page 635.
