Miniature French Inlaid Religieuse Clock

About the Item

Miniature Ebonised Religieuse or Bracket Clock originally sold by Dent. With engraved bone inlay, brass finials and balustrading. In the manner of a 17th century baroque clock with brass chapter ring striking on a gong. This clock has exquisite bone inlay, that is further engraved and picked out in ink to add extra depth to the foliate scrolls and swags contrasting with the ebony body, the dial is flanked by two Corinthian columns with trompe l'oeil fluting picked out in bone with brass capitols. The diminutive proportions make it particularly rare and useful. With a Medal D’Honneur movement by Japy Freres & Cie Paris, examined and retailed by Dent, 33 Cockburn Street London, as stated on the back of the movement. The two train movement is of an unusual square formation. This is an extremely attractive clock retailed by one of the great 19th Century names.

By Victor Athanase Pierret

Located in Amersham, GB

A miniature French skeleton clock with silk suspension and eight day movement, dating from the mid 19th century, with original glass dome on an ebonised and brass inlayed base with enamel dial.

Later he moved to Paris and settled in the Rue des Bons-Enfants no. 21 when he was 24. Pierret created pendulum clocks with and without calender indicator, cases for ship’s chronometers, chronometer escapements with temperature compensation and night light clocks with pendulum.

Eureka Clock Company, London. Dial Clock

Located in Amersham, GB

A superb example of a Eureka wall clock made c1911. The electromagnetic movement is regulated by a large, slowly oscillating bi-metallic balance wheel, with the correct battery these clock will run for the duration of the battery life. Housed in a mahogany dial clock case with turned dial frame and brass bezel, the movement is visible through a cut out in the dial so the oscillation can be seen. The movement is numbered 5676 and stamped with the patent no 14614/1906 Made in England. The dial retains its original painted finish (cracked in places). This is the only model of wall clock Eureka made and is one of the rarer designs as they mostly concentrated on mantel clocks. The Eureka clock...
