19th Century French Wall Clock In Lapis Lazuli By Paul Sormani

About the Item

Elegant wall clock by Paul Sormani, in blue lapis lazuli and gilt bronze ormolu. Paul Sormani was a famed French 19th century cabinetmaker, renown for his production of magnificent luxury furniture in the style of Louis XIV, Louis XV and Louis XVI, often surpassing the quality and craftsmanship of the originals. His work was recognised at the 1867 Exhibition Universelle in Paris and described as " a distinguished ebeniste of Paris, whose work deservedly attracted the attention of the public and received the marked approval of the connoisseur". Empress Eugenie, wife of Napoleon III decorated her palaces with works by Paul Sormani, entranced by his excellence and craftsmanship. A wonderful piece that would hang gracefully in any room.
