19th Century French Alabaster Clock
About the Item
This 19th-century French alabaster clock is an exquisite example of neoclassical design. The clock features a beautifully sculpted figure of a reclining woman, elegantly draped in classical robes, evoking the grace and serenity of ancient sculpture. The clock is set within a rectangular alabaster base, decorated with neoclassical motifs such as circular medallions and lion-head ring handles, enhancing its grandeur. The clock face is adorned with Roman numerals, housed in a finely detailed brass bezel. The combination of alabaster and brass adds a touch of sophistication and timeless appeal. This clock serves as both a functional timepiece and a decorative work of art, capturing the elegance of 19th-century French craftsmanship. Its neoclassical style makes it a perfect addition to both antique and modern interiors.
