~ French - Circa 1890 ~

~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~

A large and stunning original antique French clock by the famous maker Japy Freres. It is Baroque in style, a beautiful waisted shape lightened with fret work and decorated with cornucopia, stylised mythical creatures and foliage. The pendulum can just be seen through the fret work at the front.

The dial is porcelain enamel on copper with a fancy gilt overlay to the centre, egg and dart bezel and blued steel hands.

The French movement is of high quality and is by Japy Freres. It is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is a replacement. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. Click the video clip below to hear the bell and watch the clock running!

Condition of the case is excellent, the original gilding is beautifully clean and bright with hardly any wear or discolouration and there are no losses. The dial is also in excellent condition with no damage.
