About the Item
Malachite inlaid black marble plinth-form mantel clock
French, circa 1876
Measures: Height 24cm, width 39cm, depth 16cm
This rather unusual but nonetheless beautiful mantel clock is formed from deep black marble and green malachite, both of which accented with gilt engraving. The clock case is plinth-form in shape, featuring a flat top, a wider base, and concave sides. The black marble body is inset with malachite panels and is adorned with scrolled gilt engraving. The front of the case is inset with the circular dial, which is signed “DENT, 61 Strand, London.” The front of the block, below the dial, is mounted with a silver plaque that reads “'Presented to the Rev C W Penny by The New Dormitories, March 1876”.

Empire period neoclassical malachite and gilt bronze mantel clock

Onyx, Marble, Gilt Bronze and Champlevé Enamel Pedestal Clock
Located in London, GB
This colorful pedestal clock has been crafted from fine red marble and green onyx, and beautifully decorated with gilt bronze (ormolu) and champlevé enamel. While a popular crafts material in ancient times, onyx was largely forgotten about until its rediscovery in the mid-19th century in Algeria by a French marble-worker called Delmonte. Onyx became highly fashionable in France following this discovery, and it was used to create a variety of decorative art objects.
The clock features a green onyx cube-shaped case, which is surmounted by a slightly projecting red marble top. This top is fringed with champlevé enamel drapery-like motifs, with gilt bronze drop-finials. The case is mounted on its front with a circular dial, which features a central floral champlevé enamel motif, encircled by black Arabic Numerals. This dial is set within a gilt bronze egg-and-dart and champlevé enamel bezel. The sides of the case are mounted with circular gilt bronze barometers...
