A very elegant French mantel clock in the classic Boulle style. The red tortoiseshell case is inlaid with fine Boulle work in great condition, with beautifully detailed cast brass foliage mounts to the edges of the case as well as decorative splayed feet, topped by an attractive floral cast brass finial. The typical sunburst pendulum is visible through the glass aperature to the front face, below an ornate gilt brass dial with enamelled number cartouches, showing blue Roman numerals, and a delicate pair of hands. Inside, the 8 day movement striking the hour and half hour on a bell, wound from the front. Overall a very attractive clock. Made circa 1890 by Japy Frčres of Besancon, France.As seen on T.V.
