Petit Sonnerie Carriage Clock in Gorge Case with original Gilding
About the Item
A handsome Petit Sonnerie Carriage clock in a Gorge case retaining much of its original gilding, the eight day movement with original silvered lever escapement, strikes on two nested bells, striking the hours on the larger bell and the quarters on both bells, the repeater action will repeat the time to the nearest fifteen minutes.
This clock has a two train movement of excellent quality and can be set to striking or silent with the lever in the base. The white enamel roman dial with Breguet style moon hands is in unblemished condition, as it the entire clock with only minor wear to the gilding commensurate with age.
This clock would have been made in Paris in the 1860’s by one of the main carriage clock producers for another retailer. Although we cannot find a makers mark, the platform is stamped F.R. and there are striking similarities between this clock on others by Henri Jacot.
Please note this clock will require servicing before it can be shipped, please allow and extra 14 days when placing your order.
All of our clocks come with a two year guarantee.

Henri Jacot Carriage Clock with Strike Repeat Function
Located in Amersham, GB
This superb gorge cased carriage clock is beautifully gilded, with a crisp white enamel dial and a roman chapter ring and outer arabic minutes. The eight day two train movement is regulated by a slivered English lever platform escapement, striking on a blued steel gong, with hour repeat button.
The case is numbered 10135 throughout, this coupled with the maker’s mark showing the dates of awards on the front plate, means we can date the clock to between 1878 and 1889.
The front and back plates are both marked with Jacot stamps. The front with the medal stamp listing the exposition awards Jacot had won. Bronzes in 1855 and 1862, and silver medals in 1867 and 1878. This stamp did not change until 1889 when Jacot junior won the companies first gold medal. The back plate shows the parrot trademark stamp with the initials HJ which came into use in 1878.
The back of the dial is also signed by the enameller and numbered with the serial number. This is a very thoroughly marked and numbered clock in excellent condition.
