Description

~ French - Circa 1880 ~

~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~

A stunning original antique French wall clock by the famous maker Japy Frères. It is beautifully designed in the Rococo style with profuse asymmetric 'C' scrolls, acanthus leaves and a curved panel of trellis work that allows a glimpse of the pendulum swinging behind.

The large dial is porcelain enamel on copper with a gilt bronze centre and finely made blued steel hands.

The French movement is by Japy Frères. It is the large square plated version of the Pendule de Paris movement and is of high quality. It is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is a replacement. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. We have a video of the clock, please ask and we will send you a link, or paste this in to your browser:
