About the Item

Antique French, "Ship's Quarter Deck" Automata clock from the Industrial Series. The bronze and silvered case is in the form of a ship's quarter deck, set with a real and operating binnacled compass with the quartermaster at the helm. To his right and left are fine lamps that really are gimbaled and in bronze. The quarterdeck is beautifully modelled with fine oak deck ( gilt bronze). There are patinated bronze bollards behind and to right and left of the quartermaster. The wheel that he is holding is patinated around the circumference but all the spokes are gilt bronze. Down the steps to the main deck is a young sailor with a coil of rope. Between the sailor and the steps there is a covered companionway with slatted top. To the sides are gilt bronze and silvered portholes. The whole on a stepped black marble base on bronze bracket feet. The two train French movement is stamped GLT for Guilmet and numbered 1322. The 8 day clock strikes the hours and halves on a gong. The helmsman forms the top of the compound pendulum and rocks back and forth with each tick. A fascinating French Industrial Series clock
