About the Item

Crafted in France in the 1800s, this high quality gilt bronze wall clock has elements in the style of Louis XVI. The white clock face with blue numbers rests in a raised platform surrounded by olive leaves. A large, stemmed sunflower adorns the fluted neck beneath an arch topped with a pinecone finial encircled by a foliate cup. Two arms with fluted columns wrapped in curled leaves, flank the clock face; they are topped by large fruit arrangements. A crinkled ribbon surrounding a linenfold motif forms an elaborate noix that hangs beneath the dial. The heavy bronze clock retains a particularly rich gold color, making it a perfect decorative accessory for a living room, hallway, or bedroom.

18th Century Parisian Giltwood Barometer Thermometer
Located in Dallas, TX
This lovely giltwood barometer and thermometer was hand-carved during the Louis XVI period in Paris, France. During the late 1700’s, barometers were typically only owned by wealthy families. Over time, barometers began to be viewed as works of art and could be found in middle class homes throughout Europe. The highly detailed crown of our apparatus depicts a footed vase bursting with a floral display. The garland trails down in an arch shape until it reaches an angular platform adorned with molding and vertical fluting. The flowered swag continues behind the platform, transitioning into a pair of gadrooned leaves. Each gadrooned leaf terminates in a husked cornucopia overflowing with laurel leaves. A large circular barometer dial is positioned in between the cornucopias. Under the barometer is a looping lambrequin that borders the top half of the thermometer. A pair of gadrooned leaves runs behind and through the lambrequin, flanking the lower half of the thermometer. A fluted base beneath the thermometer sits in a gadrooned cup. The detail of the carvings on this late 18th century Parisian...
