Huge Antique French Gilt Bronze Classical Clock Set

About the Item

A huge and magnificent antique French classical clock set, dating from circa 1890 and standing at over 25" in height. The clock is architecturally formed with large lions mask handles, a goddess mask, hairy paw feet and a large urn to the top. Candelabra are conforming in style with 5 graceful arms. The original gilding is in beautiful condition. The large dial is porcelain enamel on copper with a gilt bronze centre and blued steel hands. The French movement is of high quality and is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is an old replacement. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. We have a video of the clock available, please ask and we will send you a link. Condition of the case is excellent, the original gilding is beautifully clean and bright with hardly any wear or discoloration.
