German term (edited): Pendülen-Garnitur

onyx mantel clock set

A "Pend*Ü*le" is what we call a mantel clock in the UK; it is a clock with a base as distinct from one which is hung on a wall, or one which stands on the floor. Another name for it in German is a "Pendeluhr", which is a clock with a pendulum operated either by weights or springs.

I think this is what you are looking for.

The site I cited in your last question translated "Garnitur" as "accessories".

Pendulum accessories?
