About the Item
A richly detailed and beautifully aged French Louis XVI giltwood clock, likely late 18th to early 19th century. This architectural timepiece features a stately form with fluted columns, finial urns, a domed arch, and a classical female figure standing above the clock face, all entirely hand carved in wood and finished in a thick, luminous layer of original gilding.
The patina is extraordinary, showing centuries of graceful aging that enhance the depth of both carving and gilded surface. The Roman numeral enamel dial is nestled within a drum-form case supported by classical ornamentation, including rosettes, garlands, and medallions.
There is no maker's mark, no key, and it has not been tested for functionality. We are offering it as is, as a decorative and collectible antique object.
