Sienna Marble Mantel Clock.

19th century
For Sale by Its About Time
Description

A fine Sienna marble, French mantel clock with '8 day' duration movement and bell striking on the hours and half hours which can be silenced if required. Sienna marble clocks are extremely rare and the last one we had around 15 years ago sold within a week! This clock most likely dates to around 1870 and has a slim profile which makes it an ideal size for Mantel's. The clear white vitreous enamel dial is near perfect and the 'moon' hands are original too. The Malachite inlaid Urn to the front panel is bordered with a dark grey Marble and the Red sections are Griotte Marble - getting it's name from the Morello (Griotte) Cherry. A stunning piece.

This Neoclassical French mantel clock comes from the 1870 period and is constructed from ochre yellow Sienna marble, green malachite, brass, and white enamel. The upright body has a rectangular stepped base, red griotte marble sections, and a dark grey marble border enclosing a malachite urn inlay on the front face. A round brass bezel holds the white enamel dial, which displays black Roman numerals and original moon hands. Practical dimensions measure 34 cm high, 10 cm wide, and 19 cm deep. Positioned on a mantelpiece, this timepiece suits a living room, study, or hallway interior as a decorative working clock. The slim profile allows placement on shallow shelves and narrow ledges while adding architectural presence to domestic spaces. Daily winding operates the eight-day movement, which strikes on a bell to mark hours and half hours with an optional silencing function.

FAQs

A Neoclassical sienna marble mantel clock features a case crafted from rich yellow-hued sienna stone, often decorated with classical motifs such as inlaid urns, brass trim, and architectural proportions inspired by classical antiquity.

These clocks typically utilise solid or veneered marble slabs, such as sienna, rouge, or belgian black, alongside brass mechanical movements, white enamel dials, and stone inlays like malachite or lapis lazuli.

Authentic pieces generally feature hand-cut marble joins, heavy cast-brass bezels, key-wound eight-day mechanical movements, and hand-painted Roman numerals on an enamel dial.

Position the timepiece centrally on a fireplace mantelpiece, console table, or library bookshelf to serve as a grounding focal point amidst contemporary artwork or minimalist decor.

Dust the marble regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and clean gently using a pH-neutral stone cleaner, avoiding acidic substances and harsh liquids near the brass or mechanical clockwork.
