French Empire Early 19th Century Mantel Clock 'Apollo Playing the Lyre' Dartois

About the Item

Three-week duration, striking half and full hours. The enamel dial signed 'Dartois Fils à Paris'. Dartois was, just like Galle, Ledure, Raviro and Thomire, one of the leading and most renowned bronziers of the early 19th century. The gilding and ciseling of this clock is of absolutely outstanding quality. The movement has been carefully cleaned and revised by our clock restorer and is in perfect working order.
