N Wilson Antiques Clocks has dated this Inlaid Rosewood Mantel Clock to the 19th Century.
This lovely French mantel clock has a shaped rosewood case with a lovely shape and fantastic colour. The front of the case is then intricately inlaid with bovine and fruit woods in fantastic detail.
The sides of the case then have lovely fretwork panels. Finally the base is stepped out and finished with four round feet.
The dial is then silvered with a wonderful engine turned centre. The chapter ring is then silvered and set out in black Roman numerals with a thin ring to the outside marking the minutes. The centre of the dial is then signed “ARNOLD & LEWIS MANCHESTER” as well as “Made in Paris”. The dial is then finished by two lovely shaped hands and a bevelled glass set into a brass bezel.
The movement is then wound from the front and accessed from the back. It is ticking away and chiming as it should and comes complete with its pendulum and winding key. It strikes both the number of hours on the hour as well as once on the half past via a gong.
It measures approximately:
13.75” / 35cm Tall.
9.75” / 25cm Wide.
6.25” / 16cm Deep.
