This French Rococo Revival mantel clock from 1890 is constructed from brass, stained horn, ormolu, and enamel, presenting a green and gold colour scheme. The serpentine case displays foliate brass marquetry, gilded ormolu mounts, blue enamelled Roman numeral cartouches on white plaques, and a putto finial on top. Additional elements include a mask motif above the brass dial, ornate scrollwork framing the face, and four scrolling ormolu feet. The clock measures 41 cm high, 22 cm wide, and 11.5 cm deep. Positioned on a mantelpiece, this piece serves as a functional timepiece and a decorative object in a living room, study, or drawing room. The design incorporates intricate metalwork and traditional marquetry that complement period interiors or eclectic decorative schemes. The mantel clock operates with an eight-day movement designed to sit securely on flat surfaces.

A Boulle mantel clock is a traditional French timepiece decorated using a marquetry technique developed by Andre-Charles Boulle, involving cut brass inlays combined with tortoiseshell, brass, or stained horn over a wooden frame.

Green Boulle clocks typically combine brass marquetry inlays with green-stained horn or tortoiseshell, accented with cast gilt bronze or brass ormolu mounts and enamelled dial cartouches.

Authentic pieces feature intricate hand-cut brass marquetry, heavy cast ormolu mounts with chiselled detail, individual enamelled Roman numeral plaques, and French mechanical clock movements often stamped by the maker.

Position the clock centrally on a fireplace mantelpiece, marble console table, or sideboard, allowing its green and gold tones to serve as an accent piece against neutral or deeply toned walls.

Dust gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth, keeping the clock away from direct sunlight, radiator heat, and high humidity to prevent the horn and brass from lifting; internal clockwork should be serviced by a professional horologist.
