Large French Repeating Carriage Clock Fully Restored

19th century
For Sale by Arundel Clocks
Description

Hi

I have for sale a French striking and repeating carriage clock made in France around 1880;s in the rare silvered and gilded case and is simply stunning one of the best I have ever seen and striking on a gong has been fully restored with new springs all screws and gong re-blued in a stunning condition not signed but I think a Jacot?

This is one large heavy clock built to top spec and a must for the best of collections a very rare case not often seen for sale, with the solid handle also.

The Case

The case is in solid shiny gilt and stands 21cm high x 10cm wide with a depth of 9cm it is in perfect condition with mint thick 3mm beveled sides/front/ and top viewing glass.

The case is very shiny and hard to photograph they do not do the clock justice at all.

The Dial

The dial is in original condition in white porcelain, the clock has very fine original black spade hands,

with the bold but fine Roman numerals.

The Movement

The movement is an eight-day time and strike which strikes the hours via a small sweet gong to the rear and also has the repeater button on top to repeat the last hour strike, the movement has been serviced and oiled so keeping a great time over the eight days and has the original silvered platform escapement.

The movement has been fully serviced and is running very strong.

The movement contains Geneva stop work to save over winding only found on the best of the best.

Overall a very beautiful quality carriage clock by a top quality French maker that looks stunning on display and contains all of its original features this is quite a rare find these days.

I will ship worldwide and pack very carefully.

A repeating carriage clock is a portable spring-driven timepiece developed in France during the early nineteenth century, featuring a push-button mechanism that strikes the nearest hour or quarter on demand.

Traditional French carriage clocks feature solid brass cases, often finished with gilt or ormolu coating, bevelled glass panels to reveal the internal movement, and hand-enamelled white dials.

Authentic nineteenth-century examples display heavy cast gilt-brass cases, lever escapements visible through top glass panels, and French horological maker stamps or serial numbers on the back movement plate.

Position the carriage clock centrally on a fireplace mantelpiece, atop a sideboard, or within a bookshelf to add a structured horological focal point to modern or traditional rooms.

Keep the clock in a dry environment away from temperature fluctuations, wipe glass panels with a microfibre cloth, avoid abrasive metal polish on gilded surfaces, and have the mechanical movement serviced regularly.
