About the Item
The exquisite and fine set comprises a central lyre-form mantel clock and a pair of matching candelabra, all constructed in white marble mounted with gilt bronze. The clock’s lyre-shaped frame is surmounted by a gilt bronze sunburst centered with a classical mask, with floral swags and beaded garlands suspended between the uprights. The sides are adorned with gilt bronze mounts in the form of rooster heads terminating in acanthus leaves, leading to the circular bezel and white enamel dial with Arabic numerals and floral swags. The clock is raised on a waisted pedestal and a rounded base, each decorated with gilt bronze laurel swags, beading, and leaf motifs, and supported on gilt toupie feet.
The two candelabra are modeled as vase-form bases in white marble mounted with gilt bronze beading, floral garlands, and handles formed as stylized bird heads. Each vase supports a bouquet of naturalistic gilt bronze rose stems, with leaves and buds, forming four candle sockets shaped as blooming roses. The waisted pedestals and circular bases mirror the clock’s decoration with gilt bronze laurel swags, rosettes, and beading, and are also raised on gilt toupie feet.
The design follows the Louis XVI style, characterized by classical motifs, symmetrical ornamentation, and refined neoclassical proportions. The combination of white marble and gilt bronze was a favored pairing in French decorative arts of this style, and the execution here includes detailed chasing on the mounts and careful shaping of the marble elements. The clock dial is signed “Paris,” indicating its origin from a French workshop producing such decorative timepieces.
