About the Item
A refined and authentic Louis XVI period mantel clock, that still chimes, this exceptional late-18th-century timepiece features an elegant white enamel dial with Arabic numerals, suspended between two stately grey marble columns enriched with finely chased ormolu (gilt bronze) appliqués. Radiating classical symbolism, the clock is crowned by a sculptural vase with gilt bronze flowers, while each column supports a neoclassical lyre motif with laurel leaves, representing harmony and triumph. The base, also in grey marble, rests on gilt bronze feet and is bordered with twisted rope form mounts. The movement retains its original pendulum: a superb gilt bronze sunburst mask of Apollo, emblem of enlightenment and artistic excellence. The clock chimes on the hour and half-hour, offering full functionality with its original key. A museum-quality Louis XVI objet d’art, ideal for collectors of fine French antiques and luxury neoclassical décor.
