18th Century, Italian Wood Ringtone and Alarm Table Clock with Gilt Bronze

About the Item

18th century, Italian Louis XV wood ringtone and alarm table clock with gilt bronze This table clock was made in the north of Italy (Genoa) 18th century, Louis XV era. The case, the sides and the top are paved with fine violet’s wood. The interior of the case is paved with a refined game of wood coloring that creates a chessboard surface with hexagonal dowels. The dial is in enamelled metal foil, with Roman numeration for the hours and Arabic numeration for the minuts. The top is surmounted by a gilded bronze sculpture carved in putto style with raised arm. The lower part of the case is adorned with an application in finely ceselled and gilded bronze that depicts the god Apollo pulling the chariot of the sun. Apollo is a deity of the Greek and Roman religion; God of the Sun (whose chariot he pulls), of all arts, music, prophecy, poetry, medical arts (the god of medicine is in fact his son Asclepius) of pestilence and of science that illuminates the intellect. The god appears as a young man of extraordinary beauty whose head is surrounded by rays forming his golden hair. He travels through the sky, from east to west, carrying the light with a royal chariot drawn by the four winged horses (Pyride, Eoo, Etone and Flegone), whose names evoke the flame, the fire, the light. The case is also decorated with gilded bronze applications, finely ceselled in rocaille motifs with vegetable girali. It rests on four feet in gilt bronze with volute motifs. This clock, with the ringing of hours and quarters, is quite rare as it is also equipped with the alarm function.

18th Century, Italian Louis XV Wood Center Table

Located in IT

18th century, Italian Louis XV wood center table This elegant and refined center cabinet was made in Turin around the mid-18th century. Characteristic of the high Piedmontese cabinet making, for this piece of furniture, a veneer was chosen with the particular wood, applied on the piece of furniture with a sophisticated game of mirrors and patterns of the wood grain. The furniture has a shaped and wavy top, and the wooden essence creates a chromatic game called "a occhio di pernice" (partridge eye). On the front it consists of two drawers and a compartment protected by two doors. The opening system of the doors is sliding, very rare and difficult to achieve. The mouthpieces of the locks are in chiseled bronze and gold, as well as the tips of the four legs that are arched and graceful, typical of the Baroque. This cabinet is perfect for any room and can also be exposed in the center of a room thanks to its finish on all four sides. It is also suitable alongside modern and antique furniture.
