About the Item

A desk compendium of unusually large size. This eight day clock, barometer and thermometer housed in a nickel and gilt case and mounted on a black marble base is of exceptional quality and imposing size. The crisp white enamel clock dial is marked Henri Marc, Paris. The clock movement is regulated by a platform cylinder mounted on an arched back plate with fine blued steel spade hands, housed behind a moulded silvered bezel and a frosted gilt oval mask engraved with symmetrical foliate designs to upper and lower margins, set within an oval moulded nickel finish case with bevel-glazed gilt cavetto moulded front and push-on rear cover mounted next to a matching aneroid barometer with the thermometer joining the two ovals. The nickel finish to this clock makes it an unusual example as does it’s size (see last picture side by side with a more usual example). Henry Marc is noted in Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS Their history and development as probably a retailer of various mantel and other small clocks and refers to a relatively early carriage clock (number 26886) supplied to Marc by Japy Freres. Please note this clock will require servicing in our workshop before it can be shipped, this is included in the price and comes with a 2 year guarantee, however, this may affect the time it takes to ship the clock.

This superb gorge cased carriage clock is beautifully gilded, with a crisp white enamel dial and a roman chapter ring and outer arabic minutes. The eight day two train movement is regulated by a slivered English lever platform escapement, striking on a blued steel gong, with hour repeat button. The case is numbered 10135 throughout, this coupled with the maker’s mark showing the dates of awards on the front plate, means we can date the clock to between 1878 and 1889. The front and back plates are both marked with Jacot stamps. The front with the medal stamp listing the exposition awards Jacot had won. Bronzes in 1855 and 1862, and silver medals in 1867 and 1878.

The back of the dial is also signed by the enameller and numbered with the serial number. This is a very thoroughly marked and numbered clock in excellent condition. Henri Jacot...
