This gilt metal cartel wall clock dates from 1880 in the French Rococo style, finished in gold with extensive openwork decoration. The case displays elaborate asymmetrical acanthus scrollwork, trailing foliage, and raised flower-heads wrapping around the central circular surround. Centred within the decorative frame is a white enamel dial featuring blue Roman numerals, protective glass, decorative pierced hands, and two winding holes. The metal exhibits a warm golden tone throughout the intricate relief carvings and scrolling crest at the top. The piece measures 55 cm high, 26 cm wide, and 11 cm deep. Positioned in a contemporary interior, this wall clock hangs above the mantel in a principal reception room or study. The compact projection from the wall allows installation in hallways or dining rooms where space is limited. The mounting point at the top supports secure hanging against plaster or panelled walls. Natural light catches the gilded surfaces and highlights the depth of the floral and leaf motifs.

FAQs

A cartel clock is a type of wall-mounted timepiece set within an elaborate, cartouche-shaped frame featuring scrollwork and foliate ornament, originating in eighteenth-century France.

Cartel clock casings are predominantly cast in bronze or brass with gilt or lacquered finishes, encasing a white enamel dial with hand-painted numerals.

Authentic examples feature heavy cast metal casings with hand-chased Rococo detailing, glass-protected enamel dials, and traditional mechanical brass clockwork.

A gilt cartel clock serves as a focal point when mounted above a fireplace mantel, integrated into a gallery wall, or placed above a console table in an entry hall.

Dust the ornate casing regularly using a soft dry brush or microfiber cloth, taking care to avoid liquid polishes or chemical cleansers that may strip the gilding.
