Can anyone help to identify the maker of a small mantle clock I have just bought. It is modeled in the form of a small child in a nightgown with a finger to her lips. Below the clock face are the words 'Tick Tack'. I think it may be french as the word 'depose' is impressed into the back. Also impressed are two further marks, one circular about the size of a 2p coin and appears to show a glass blower. The other is a word seems to start Pod... but I can't make out the rest. The figure is in a soft green glaze but the head and and have a bisque appearance (not shiny). The clock movement is made by Lenzkirch, the numerals are very 'Arts and crafts'. Thank you

We would need photos to help with the identification.

'Depose' would point to a French maker.
