About the Item

Very decorative and charming French tall case clock featuring a painted pine case adorned with floral decorations. The porcelain clock dial bears the signature "Labaume, à Severac le Chateau," presented in an embossed frame, dating back to circa 1870. Due to the soft pine wood used in the construction of comtoise cases, termites are attracted to it. As a result, many comtoise cases did not survive due to termite damage, along with the trend of clocks being sold and displayed for a period without their cases, leading to many comtoise cases being discarded. Consequently, it is becoming more and more rare nowadays to find the clock complete with its original case. Painted cases, in particular, are highly decorative objects. This case has been treated against termites for obvious reasons ;-) The clock works. Roman numerals. The physical object can differ slightly in colour from the object as presented online. We have made every effort to display colours accurately, but cannot guarantee that the pictures accurately reflect the colour of those goods in real life. Please keep in mind that we only sell vintage and antique pieces and none of our pieces should be considered new or in perfect condition. All of our antique and vintage products show the rich beauty and history of their life with the knocks and bumps of many years of use. We restore/clean our pieces so they will be in a good working condition, but we minimise restoration to keep every piece as original as possible.
