FAQs

The Boulle style is named after Andre-Charles Boulle, a master cabinetmaker to Louis XIV, renowned for elaborate tortoiseshell and brass marquetry known as buhl work.

These timepieces traditionally utilise a wooden carcase veneered with exotic hardwoods, tortoise-shell or tortoiseshell imitation, accented with cast brass or ormolu mounts.

Authentication involves examining the movement type, hand-cut screws, the quality of the fire-gilded bronze or brass mounts, and the ageing of the wooden carcase beneath the polish.

Placing the clock on a clean-lined modern sideboard or minimalist mantelpiece creates a striking focal point through the juxtaposition of eras.

Keep the movement away from direct sunlight and humidity, ensure the clock is placed on a stable surface, and have the mechanical movement professionally serviced every few years.
