French Repeater Carriage Clock with Stunning Enamel Panels 1890 Fully Restored

19th century
For Sale by Arundel Clocks
Description

Hi

I have for sale a French striking and repeating carriage clock made in France around the 1890s; with the hand-painted porcelain panels in a gilded orbis case.

This is one nice and heavy clock built to top spec and a must for the best of collections, with the entire clock with the same matching numbers which again is on the base of the escapement.

The Case

The case is in solid shiny gilt brass and stands 21cm to the top of the handle high x 11cm wide with a depth of 10cm it is in perfect condition with mint thick 3mm beveled front and top viewing glass.

The side panels and indeed the dial are hand-painted porcelain panels the artwork is amazing.

The case is very shiny and hard to photograph they do not do the clock justice at all.

The Dial

The dial is in original condition painted porcelain looks stunning in the flesh, the clock has very fine original black spade hands.

The Movement

The movement is an eight-day time and strike that strikes the hours via a small sweet gong to the rear the movement has been serviced so running great.

The clock also contains Genre stop work to stop over winding a top-quality feature only found on top-end clocks.

Overall a very beautiful quality carriage clock by a top quality French maker that looks stunning on display and contains all of its original features this is quite a rare find these days.

I will ship worldwide and pack very carefully please read my feedback from other clock buyers.

FAQs

Originating in France during the early nineteenth century, carriage clocks were developed as portable timepieces for travellers. Repeater carriage clocks feature a mechanical push-button mechanism that sounds the hour or quarter-hour on demand, allowing the user to determine the time in the dark.

Traditional carriage clocks are constructed with heavy gilt-brass cases, polished glass or hand-painted enamel panels, and steel clockwork movements. High-grade examples feature jewelled lever escapements and intricate chased metalwork detailing.

Authentic French carriage clocks typically bear maker marks or serial numbers stamped onto the back plate of the movement. Look for features such as heavy brass plates, polished bevelled glass, hand-decorated enamel dials, and traditional hair-spring escapements rather than modern quartz substitutes.

A brass carriage clock serves as a refined focal point on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or bedside table. Placing it alongside polished metal accents, leather-bound books, or minimalist ceramics creates an appealing textural contrast in contemporary spaces.

Keep the brass case clean by dusting softly with a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical polishes that can strip the protective lacquer or gilt finish. Mechanical movements require periodic servicing by a professional horologist every five to seven years to ensure accurate timekeeping.
