Description

Of all the carriage clock makers working in France throughout the 19th Century, Bourdin was, in my opinion, at the top. This very good example has the engraved dial mask and signed dial. The engraving is crisp and quite beautiful. The gilded 'corniche' shape case has engraving to all sides and bevelled glass.

The clock has push repeat and alarm functions. It has just had a full strip down service/overhaul and photo's can be supplied of this restoration if needed. The dial has Roman numerals and the name of Bourdin Hor Du Roi ,a Paris (Horologer to the King). An investment grade clock and a truly wonderful example to own. This clock dates circa 1890. Original throughout.
