Description

~ French - Circa 1890 ~

~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~

A beautiful original antique French Baroque style clock by the famous maker Japy Frères. It is very well made in gilt bronze. The front is formed of a goddess mask surrounded by twirling foliage and floral swags allowing a glimpse of the pendulum swinging within.

The dial is porcelain enamel with a bronze centre and original blued steel hands.

The French movement is by Japy Freres and is of the makers usual high quality. It is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is an old replacement. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. Click the video 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. The dial is also in excellent condition just some tiny nibbles to the winding holes and some faint hairlining.
