Description

~ French - Circa 1900 ~

~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~

A superb original antique French Rococo clock. It is beautifully modelled in gilded bronze, of waisted shape, profusely decorated with 'C' scrolls, acanthus leaves, shells and trailing foliage. To the top is an elaborate handled urn and to the front is a collection of musical instruments.

The dial is white porcelain enamel on copper with a separate minute ring and original finely fretted gilt brass hands.

The French movement is by A. D. Mougin and is of the maker's usual high quality. It is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is original. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. Click the video clip 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 just some chips the winding holes.
