About the Item

This elegant clock and candelabra set exemplifies the grandeur and refined aesthetic of the 19th century. The ensemble showcases a harmonious blend of classical influences, intricate craftsmanship, and luxurious materials, characteristic of this era. Design Highlights: Clock: Figureal Sculpture: The clock is surmounted by a bronze sculpture depicting a mythological scene, possibly involving a nymph and satyr. The figures are delicately modeled, conveying a sense of movement and drama. Malachite Base: The clock rests on a substantial base crafted from malachite, a semi-precious stone known for its deep green color and intricate veining. The malachite base adds a luxurious touch and complements the bronze sculpture beautifully. Ornate Bronzework: The clock features intricate bronzework, including ormolu mounts and decorative accents. The detailing is finely executed, showcasing the craftsmanship of the period. The clock face, likely enameled, features Roman numerals, adding to the classic aesthetic. Candelabras: Figureal Sculpture: Each candelabra is supported by a bronze figure, likely representing a young woman or a classical deity. The figures add a sculptural element and enhance the overall aesthetic of the set. Ornate Bronzework: The candelabra feature intricate bronzework with scrolling acanthus leaves, floral motifs, and decorative accents. The detailing is finely executed, matching the level of craftsmanship found on the clock. Functionality: Each candelabra features multiple candle arms, allowing for ample illumination. Style and Period: The design elements, including the figureal sculptures, the use of malachite, and the ornate bronzework, are indicative of the 19th-century decorative arts. This period saw a revival of interest in classical forms and a focus on luxury and grandeur. Overall Impression: This clock and candelabra set is a captivating ensemble that would make a stunning centerpiece for any grand salon or library. It represents a sophisticated blend of artistry and craftsmanship, reflecting the opulence and refinement of 19th-century decorative arts. Details of the movement mechanism: Eight days ago a hanging pendulum. It struck half past one on the bell. The clock works very well and early. And it was recently cleaned and serviced by a professional watchmaker. The clock comes complete with key and bell.
