French 19th Century Louis XVI St. Marble, Ormolu and Patinated Bronze Clock

About the Item

An elegant and high quality French 19th century Louis XVI st. white Carrara marble, ormolu and patinated bronze clock, signed Jean, A Rennes. The clock is raised by four fine topie shaped feet with a lovely foliate and beaded design. The rectangular white Carrara marble support displays a lightly curved reeded wrap around ormolu band leading up to an additional marble support with a striking richly chased fitted pierced ormolu mount of mirrored Vitruvian scrolls. Above is a beautiful finely detailed patinated bronze maiden draped in a wonderfully executed flowing garment reading a book. She is seating on a low stool while lying back, leaning on the exceptional clock. The clock displays a white enameled clock face with cobalt blue Roman numeral hour markings and Arabic numeral minute markings. At the center is the signature, while the most decorative and richly chased ormolu body displays beautiful scrolled foliate designs and a berried laurel wreath above, tied with a charming ribbon. All original gilt and patina throughout.
