French Repeating Carriage Clock Fully Restored 1880s

19th century
For Sale by Arundel Clocks
Description

Hi

I have for sale a French striking and repeating carriage clock made in France around 1880;s and is simply stunning, one of the best I have ever seen and striking on a gong has been fully restored with new springs, all screws and gong re-blued in stunning condition, not signe,d but I think a Jacot?

This is one large heavy clock built to top spec and a must for the best of collections a very rare case not often seen for sale, with the solid handle also.

The Case

The case is in solid shiny gilt and stands 19cm high x 10cm wide with a depth of 9cm it is in perfect condition with mint thick 3mm bevelled sides/front/ and top viewing glass.

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 with a Roman border against a gilt mask with a chased centre set off with fine Roman numerals, and the clock has very fine original black ornate hands.

The Movement

The movement is an eight-day time and strike which strikes the hours via a small sweet gong to the rear and also has the repeater button on top to repeat the last hour strike, the movement has been serviced and oiled so keeping a great time over the eight days and has the original silvered platform escapement.

The movement has been fully restored, then serviced and is running very strong.

The movement contains Geneva stop work to save over winding only found on the best of the best.

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.

FAQs

A French repeating carriage clock is a portable spring-driven timepiece developed in France during the early nineteenth century, featuring a push-button mechanism that repeats the last hour or quarter sounded on demand.

These clocks were predominantly constructed using cast and chased brass or gilded bronze cases, fitted with bevelled glass panels and steel movement components.

Authentic pieces from this period typically feature stamped maker marks on the backplate, heavy gilded brass casings, thick bevelled glass plates, and platform lever escapements.

Position the clock on a timber mantelpiece, a modern console table, or a stack of hardcover books to contrast classic precision engineering with modern decor.

Store the clock in a dry, stable environment, wind the mechanism without forcing the mainspring, and wipe the brass case gently using a dry lint-free cloth.
