Large French 19th Century Black and Green Marble Clock Garniture

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.
