About the Item

Late 19th century ormolu and white marble mantel clock by Linke French, Late 19th Century Height 56cm, width 39cm, depth 25cm This impressive mantel clock commands attention with its grand size and exquisite craftsmanship. It was crafted in the late 19th century by Francois Linke (1855-1946), the renowned French maker. Mounted on a sleek grey marble base and supported by six turned feet, the body of the clock is crafted from brilliant white marble, creating a striking contrast. The clock face, framed with intricate ribbons and floral swags, features a convex white enamel dial displaying both Roman and Arabic numerals. It is equipped with twin winding holes to accommodate a French brass eight-day cylinder movement. What truly sets this timepiece apart is the elaborate ormolu sculptures that adorn it. On the left, a woman draped in classical attire uses a stack of books to ascend the plinth, extending her arm to offer a wreath of flowers to a winged cherub perched atop the clock. To the right, rich fabric cascades down the central column, guiding the eye towards a young boy lovingly kissing a dove. The clock’s plinth is further enhanced with gilded ormolu detailing, featuring a dove nestled within rose briars, adding a delicate touch of nature. This clock is signed ‘Linke’. A true testament to the artistry of a master craftsman, this remarkable clock would make an elegant addition to any sophisticated interior.
