Description
A fine quality 19th century French mantel clock in gilt metal, of elegant Louis XVI revival design, the case surmounted by a classical urn finial and richly adorned with crisply cast mounts and beaded detail throughout.
The circular porcelain dial with Roman numerals, set against a striking blue ground, above finely painted porcelain panels depicting delicate pastoral and mythological scenes of excellent colour and detail.
The eight-day movement has been recently serviced, is in good working order, and strikes the hours and half hours on a bell.
A refined and decorative example of French horology, offering strong visual appeal and presence.
France, circa 1860–1880
