Delépine-barrois: A Giant Engraved Carriage Clock

£5,000    $6,717    €5,861
A giant engraved Corniche carriage clock by Delépine-Barrois of Paris and Saint Nicolas d''Aliermont.
 
The eight-day duration movement has a platform lever escapement and strikes the hours and half-hours on a gong with a repeat via a button to the top. The backplate is stamped with the serial number 730 along with the hand setting arrow design as used by Delépine-Barrois, fine carriage clock makers with a workshop in Saint Nicolas d''Aliermont.
 
The white enamel dial has black Roman hour numerals, Arabic five-minute outer numerals and blued steel spade hands.
 
The giant case is of excellent quality and is fully engraved with floral and scroll decoration.
 
I have been undertaking research into the clockmakers Delépine-Barrois and identified them to be the married couple Ludovic Delépine and Marie Barrois.
