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 vi
...a 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.
