Description

This exceptional 'Balloon Clock' is perhaps the very best we have had from all the French clockmakers in our 43years of clock dealing and repairing. The dial has an 'engine turned' rippled engraved center, fine Roman numerals with Moon style hands, The case stands proud and is beautifully shaped with a sweep backwards as well as both sides. The case is constructed mainly from Mahogany but also has inlays of Boxwood and Ebony. A fine shell inlay in the classic Sheraton style decorated the front panel. Truly wonderful and a rare find these days! This clock really does have to be viewed in our shop to appreciate the beauty if you are not too far away.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
