~ French - Circa 1890 ~
 
~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~
 
A magnificent and very large original antique French Rococo cartel wall clock. Asymmetrically modelled in the Louis XV style, the dial bursting through the swirling clouds as the sun, cherubs climbing through them, one with a bouquet, one with a cornucopia. The rays backed with red fabric fretwork to lighten the design. It is made of ormolu (finely gilded bronze).
 
The large dial is porcelain enamel on copper and is complete with its original finely fretted gilt brass hands and convex glass.
 
The French movement is of high quality and is by A.D. Mougin. It is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is an old 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 into your browser: https://www.facebook.com/DragonAntiques/videos/1523297758258695
