~ French - Circa 1900 ~

~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~

A stunning antique French Baroque clock. It is beautifully made in gilt bronze and features large lions masks to the sides and it sits on hairy paw feet. The front is pieced to allow a glimpse of the pendulum gently swinging within the case.

The dial is porcelain enamel on copper with a gilt bronze centre and finely cut and blued steel hands.

The French movement is of high quality and is by A. D. Mougin. It is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is a replacement. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. We have a video of the clock running, please ask and we will send you a link.

Condition of the case is excellent, the original gilding is beautifully clean and bright with some slight marks and discolouration. The dial is also in excellent condition just some tiny nibbles to the winding holes and a very small and faint hairline.

A. D. Mougin clockmaker's mark on the movement backplate
