Hundred year old billiard russ

Billiard

i just bought this billiard russ, in excellent condition for over hundred years old. 
please click above link for picture. 
there is no information on it apart from the clockwork dédé which is the name of the clockmaker.  It’s from France or Belgium for sure. 
Anyone know anything about this ? Also I made some skittles of chess pieces but since there is a 200 point hole missing I’m not sure what the exact rules are for this or do I need more skittles. Probably old billiard russ rules but I can only find bar billiards rules

Hi and welcome.

Billard Russe

Might be of use, though your table has a most unusual configuration with only four holes along the top instead of five.

What a beautiful table!  A real piece of furniture....
