Description

Hi

I have for sale a French striking and repeating carriage clock made in France around the 1900;s in the rare silvered and gilded case and is simply stunning striking on a gong has been fully restored with new springs all screws and the gong re-blued in stunning condition.

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 20cm high x 11cm 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.

Please note the silvered and gilt embossed flower designs on all three sides and the red numerals on the dial rare thing.

The Dial

The dial is in original condition in white porcelain, the dial is set in a stunning gilded fretwork mask which sets this clock apart from others,the clock has very fine original black moon hands,

with the bold but fine RED Arabic 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 bonus of 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 French repeating carriage clock is a portable spring-driven timepiece developed in France during the early nineteenth century. Designed primarily for travel, these clocks feature a top carrying handle and a movement mechanism that strikes the hour or quarter-hour when a top button is activated.

Carriage clocks were predominantly engineered using gilt brass or bronze cases, clear bevelled glass panels to reveal the movement, and porcelain, enamel, or silvered brass dials with steel hands.

Authentic nineteenth-century French carriage clocks typically display stamped maker marks or serial numbers on the back movement plate, fine bevelled glass, heavy gilt brass casing, and a platform escapement visible through the top viewing window.

A gilt brass carriage clock functions well on a fireplace mantelpiece, a curated bookshelf, or a hallway console table, serving as a focal point that blends classical craftsmanship with modern interior decor.

Dust the brass casing gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid using harsh chemical polishes that can wear away gilding. Mechanical movements should be serviced by a qualified horologist every five to seven years to ensure longevity.
