[Copper gilded four-lion elephant water method table]

Copper gilded four-lion elephant water method table, England, 18th century. Height: 81cm, width: 41cm, thickness: 33cm
The clock has three floors. The four lions bear a base. The front and back of the base are carved with hunting scenes, and the two sides are scenes of snakes and bears fighting. The elephant pack car is the second floor. The elephant belly is equipped with music devices and gear systems that drive the water method. The elephant car has four pillars with the head of a figure, and the water method is arranged in it. The front of the third layer of stacked stone is inlaid with a two-needle watch, which not only keeps the time, but also tells the time
After the bell is strung, with the accompaniment of the music, the two-story water method turns like a waterfall. The clock is made by James Cox
