Auguste Pointaux – coup perdu escapement
The large gilt-bronze case has exaggerated moldings, stylized scrolls to the sides, friction fit front and back doors, heavy beveled glasses to all sides, a large finial and six turned feet.
The two-piece white porcelain dial has steel-cut Breguet-style hands, a steel sweep second hand and Roman numerals for the hours on the outside chapter. The sunken center is signed ‘LeRoy & Fils Galerie Montpensier, 13-15 Palais-Royal, Paris' and '211 Regent Street, London' and has the coup-perdu escapement designed and stamped on the reverse side of one arm by the maker, ‘Augst. Pointaux’.
The coup-perdu or 'lost beat escapement impulses the escape wheel every other swing of the half-second pendulum thus showing seconds on the dial.
The large exceptional eight-day time and strike movement is wound out the front, set by a knurled knob off the backplate, stamped ‘LeRoy & Fils, 9966 A PARIS‘ , carries the Pons trademark and strikes on a bell. The coup perdu escapement has jeweled curved arms and an escape wheel with both teeth and pins. The large half-second 3 rod pendulum has a gilt bob and is suspended by a steel suspension spring from a robust back cock that integrates a safety pin and is adjusted for fast slow out the dial.
Edme Laurent Auguste Pointaux (1809-1884) was an important clockmaker who started working at LeRoy & Fils in 1830 and never left. Inventor of this version of the 'échappement à coup perdu' in ca. 1852 with the curved Robin pallets.
Le Roy et fils was a French company making clocks and watches. The company was founded in 1785 by Basile Charles le Roy (1765 - 1839), who later passed it on to his son, Charles-Louis Le Roy.
Surviving the turmoil of the French Revolution it became clockmaker to Napoleon I, his sister Princess Pauline, Mme Mere and the King of Westphalia. After the restoration of the Bourbon monarchy, it was a warrant holder for the Duke of Bourbon.
A shop was opened in London in 1854 at 296 Regent Street under the name of Le Roy and Son.[1] The name was later changed to Le Roy and Fils...

Fine French Empire Gilt Bronze Antique Mantel Clock by Honoré Pons, circa 1830
By Honoré Pons
Located in Shippensburg, PA
Surmounted by a seated artist, this fine clock is of a quality in cast and finish that is above reproach. Beneath the mercury gilding, remnants of the hand chasing are visible across all surfaces, evidence of the chiseleur's labor in carefully filing the bronze sculpture into perfect realism. The figure is draped in a complex folded cape, his hand rested along scrolls of sketches over a square pedestal, propped in a moment of thoughtful repose.
The squared case of the clock features an etched clock face with a Roman Numeral chapter ring and pierced hands. The movement was designed by Pierre-César Honoré...
