About the Item

This exceptional mantel clock, executed in the highly sought-after Empire style, presents a captivating tableau dedicated to the theme of music. Signed "Caillouet à Paris," a clockmaker referenced in Tardy as early as 1810, this rare model showcases exquisite craftsmanship and artistic vision. The scene unfolds with a musician elegantly seated in a finely decorated winding chair, deeply engrossed in reading a musical score that rests upon a desk. The domed white enamel dial is discreetly positioned between the desk's legs, adding to the scene's visual harmony. Architectural elements such as resting partitions and a lyre adorned with a flowing drape lend further depth and elegance to the composition. Atop a slender column, a delicately crafted perfume burner adds a touch of refinement. The clock rests on a fine rectangular base embellished with a row of pearls and sculpted friezes depicting ribbons, trumpets, and angelic musicians, creating a harmonious interplay of form and function. The clock retains its original mechanism, featuring a silk thread suspension and striking the hour and half-hour on an antique bell. A testament to its exceptional quality, the clock is in pristine condition, demonstrating meticulous craftsmanship and meticulous preservation. It has undergone a thorough cleaning and maintenance by a specialist in the conservation of antique timepieces, ensuring its continued functionality and longevity.

This is a unique, authentic antique French table or mantel clock. It is in finely chiseled and gilded bronze. The dial with outer Arabic numerals and inner Roman numerals and a fine pair of pierced gilt brass hands for the hours and minutes. Next to the clock is a tall lady figurine, accompanied by a child. The woman is holding a book in her right hand and a feather pen in her left hand. On the other side, the child draped in the Antique is standing on books and holding a paper. The white marble base rests on four small spinning feet. This clock was made by Jean-Baptiste Baillon III, one of the most skilled and innovative makers of his day. Baillon achieved almost unprecedented success to become “the richest watchmaker in Europe” - F.J. Britten. He was also one of the most important clockmakers of the eighteenth century and undoubtedly the most famous member of a long line of clockmakers. His success was largely due to his ability to organise a vast and thriving private factory in Saint-Germain-en-Laye which was unique in the history of eighteenth century clockmaking. The renowned horologist, Ferdinand Berthoud was among many to be impressed by its scale and quality and in 1753 noted that Baillon’s “house is the finest and richest Clock Shop. Diamonds are used not only to decorate his Watches but even Clocks. He has made some whose cases were small gold boxes...
