About the Item
An exquisite 18th Century Louis XVI mantel clock crafted in ormolu and marble, adorned with intricate detailing. Housed within a meticulously carved marble case, the clock features a charming lady figure and cherub embellishments on each side, enhancing its ornate appeal. Its white enamel dial, measuring 5¼ inches and signed by Ridel A Paris, displays hour and minute markers alongside a concentric date hand. The clock operates via three keyholes for winding and boasts a bell striking movement with a star-cut count wheel and silk suspension. Characterized by its open-backed design, the clock bears the distinguished signature "Ridel A PARIS." The rocaille case is gracefully flanked by the figures of Venus and Cupid, while a plaque portraying putti musicians adorns the bowfront base, adding to its allure.

Antique 19th Century French Regency Style Gilt Bronze Clock, Thuret A Paris
Located in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent
A Monumental 19th Century Regency Style Gilt-Bronze Inlaid Grand Cartel de Applique, In the Manner of André-Charles Boulle. This impressive and large cartel clock has a circular, arabesque chased, brass dial with Roman numerals on enamelled cartouches, with engraved seconds and steel hands. The rear of the clock is open cased. The dial sits within a waisted case, with large acanthus mounted gilt-bronze volutes, surmounted by a palmette mascaron and a figure of Jupiter as a child and an enamel cartouche signed ‘Thuret A PARIS’. It is supported on large foliate mounted scrolls and decorated to the sides with Boulle marquetry panels and lion mask mounts. An eighteenth-century version of this clock by ‘Mynuel A Paris’ (Maitre 1720) is illustrated by Tardy in ‘La Pendule Francaise’, 1ere partie, p. 141.
Initially conceived by C. Cressent, the design was further refined by A.C. Boulle before being embraced by J.J. de Saint-Germain. The earliest examples of this distinctive style bear the signature of clockmaker J. III Thuret. Only a handful of identical specimens of this model are known to exist. One such identical piece resides in the Frick Collection in New York, originating from the Dalva Brothers...
