Viennese Portal Clock, 1st Half 19th Century

About the Item

An elegant Viennese portal clock resting on a rectangular mahogany base. The ebonized case is richly adorned with fire-gilded bronze appliqués. Flanking the clock are carved decorations depicting chimerae with eagle heads, and it is crowned with another eagle at the top. Marble columns frame the central portal. The enamel dial, featuring Arabic numerals, is encased in a finely crafted brass ring. Within the portal, there are depictions of the goddess Athena with the Gorgon shield, as well as two nymphs holding cornucopias and wheat sheaves.
