19th Century French Empire Clock Garniture, Japy Frères et Cie Movement

Located in North Palm Beach, FL

This magnificent three-piece mantel clock garniture exemplifies the height of French Empire Revival design in the 19th century—where classical grandeur, refined materials, and superb craftsmanship converge to create a work of both artistry and precision.
