About the Item

This striking mantel clock is a fine example of the Empire style, a period characterized by its grandeur and inspiration from classical antiquity. The clock showcases a masterful combination of materials and craftsmanship, resulting in a piece that is both visually stunning and functionally versatile. The clock features a beautifully sculpted bronze figure of a reclining muse, likely representing music or poetry. The figure is elegantly draped and holds a lyre, adding a touch of artistic sophistication. The clock face, likely made of enamel, is framed by a decorative surround, possibly featuring motifs inspired by Greek or Roman architecture. The clock rests on a base of red marble, providing a rich and luxurious contrast to the bronze. The base is further embellished with gilt bronze mounts, featuring intricate details such as acanthus leaves, rosettes, and possibly mythological figures. This clock would be a valuable addition to any discerning collector's home, adding a touch of historical elegance and sophistication to any interior.
