French brass and red enamel compendium carriage clock and barometer

About the Item

French brass and red enamel compendium carriage clock and barometer French, late 19th Century Height 16cm, width 17cm, depth 7cm With the clock to the left and barometer to the right, this beautiful compendium clock and barometer, designed as a travel set, was made in France in the late 19th century, featuring a variety of intricate and skilfully crafted technical elements. The dial of the barometer is labelled, 'Made in Paris,' and the piece also features a thermometer to the centre and a compass on top. An escapement viewing pane on top allows a view of the machinery inside; however, the highlight of this fine piece is undoubtedly the red enamel panels which adorn and decorate the casing, rendering it an unmissable collector's piece.

  • Louis XV Rococo Style Clock and Barometer Set by P. Gravelin
    By L. Marti et Cie
    Located in London, GB
    Louis XV Rococo style clock and barometer set by Gravelin French, Late 19th Century Clock & Barometer: height 77cm, width 32cm, depth 15cm Designed in the Louis XV Rococo style, this very fine clock and barometer set dates to c.1870 and was made by Parisian makers Paul Gravelin & Louis Marti et Cie in the time of the French Belle Époque. The matching cases are cast with scrolling foliate decoration, with intricate, elegant swirling flowers and ribbons, in rocaille form. The dial of the clock is painted with both Arabic and Roman numerals and signed to the centre 'Paul Gravelin,' above the dial, and below: 'Paris, 8 Rue Charlot,' while the square-plate eight-day movement is by Marti, an stamped 'Louis Marti et Cie, Bronze Medaille.' The gilding is of exceptional quality, and demonstrates the prowess of late nineteenth century Parisian craftsmen, who looked to earlier French regal periods for stylistic inspiration yet updated styles, particularly the Rococo, with their own individual flair, as is evident from these fine antique timepieces.
