About the Item

A charming and high quality French 18th century Louis XVI period ormolu, Gris St. Anne and white Carrara marble clock, signed 'Mailland, a Paris'. The clock is raised by six mottled ormolu ball feet below the D shaped white Carrara marble base. Lovely ormolu balusters extend around the base and are connected with fine swaging chains. Two Gris St. Anne marble architectural columns lead upwards and are decorated with detailed ormolu mounts with tied berried laurel wreaths and arrows. Each column displays striking ormolu caps, charming topie shaped top finials and swaging chains that connect to the clock face. The enameled face displays pierced ormolu hands and is framed within a beautiful beaded ormolu band. Above is a charming cherub with his eternal flame, bow and arrows. All original gilt throughout.
