About the Item

This exceptional Napoleon III period mantel clock set, dating to the late 19th century, exudes elegance and sophistication. The set includes a pendulum clock and two matching cassolettes, meticulously crafted from black marble with striking green veining and adorned with refined bronze details. The central clock stands 47 cm tall and features a circular enamel dial with Roman numerals, surrounded by a gilded bronze bezel. Its mercury pendulum, visible through the glass panel, is a hallmark of superior craftsmanship from the era. Adding to its appeal, the clock is complete with its original winding key, but it will benefit from a professional servicing to ensure performance. The matching cassolettes, each 26.5 cm in height, perfectly complement the clock’s design, making this set a splendid addition to any collection of antique timepieces or a statement piece for an elegant interior. This piece is a true reflection of the artistry and precision characteristic of the Napoleon III period.
