About the Item

This majestic three-piece clock set is truly a sight to behold, and features beautifully contrasting rouge marble, gilt bronze and glittering jewels. The set comprises a central clock and a pair of flanking candelabra, which all feature complimenting designs. The central clock is shaped from rouge marble as a lyre, and mounted all over with gilt bronze leaves and swags, and surmounted by a gilt bronze Classical mask surrounded by sunbeams. Leading down from the Classical mask are gilt bronze lyre strings, which join to the bejewelled rim of the central, white enamel clock dial. The dial features a gilt pattern and black Arabic numerals as well as pierced gilt hands. The dial is signed 'Festeau Le Jeune Paris', the Parisian clockmaker who crafted this set. The clock is set on an oval shaped plinth, which is hung and banded with scrolling, foliate gilt bronze mounts, and set on toupie feet. The pair of flanking candelabra feature central, rouge marble urns hung all around with gilt bronze swags and a jewelled rim. Each urn supports four scrolling gilt bronze arms, decorated with leaves, leading to the four lights, modelled as roses, with petal drip pans. The urns are set upon gilt bronze supports, which lead downwards to the circular, rouge marble bases and gilt bronze toupie feet. Measure: Clock height 47cm, width 19cm, depth 10cm Candelabra height 43cm, width 19cm, depth 19cm.

Antique Egyptian Revival Style Marble and Gilt Bronze Clock Set

Located in London, GB

This clock set is designed in the Egyptian Revival style, which was in vogue in Europe and America in the 19th century. The fashion was kick-started by Emperor Napoleon I’s campaign in Egypt in 1798-1799. This led to the publication of ‘Le Description de l’Égypte’ (The Description of Egypt) in 1809 (and a second edition in 1830), which documented various aspects of Egyptian culture, including the pyramids, antiquities, ancient and modern buildings, Egyptian clothing...

Antique Marble, Patinated and Gilt Bronze Clock Set by Gervais

By Ferdinand Gervais

Located in London, GB

This three-piece set—composed of a clock and a pair of flanking candelabra—is a truly unique and delightful piece of decorative art. The clock is modelled in the image of an 18th century sedan chair – that is, a covered chair sat in by a member of the social elite, which was carried on poles by two people. This chair-shaped clock case is crafted from gilt bronze (ormolu) and decorated with festoons and a flower finial. At its centre, there is a circular white enamel dial, which features Arabic Numbers, colorful swag paintings, and the manufacturer’s name, 'Fd Gervais / Ft du Bronzes / A Paris'. The lower part of the case is glazed, allowing one to see the clock’s sun-burst pendulum. Like a sedan chair, the clock case is carried by two patinated bronze putti...
