About the Item

A stunning and rarely available original antique French Gothic wall clock, circa 1880. Modelled in gilded and silvered bronze with beautifully defined Gothic detail; fine tracery, carved leaved, gargoyles, mythical creatures and heraldic motifs. The dial is modelled as a window with pointed arch and intricate carving. Below is a panel with a scene of warriors. Above is a soaring roof with flying buttresses. When made the clock was gilded and then highlighted in silver, this has mellowed to a pleasing antique finish. The dial is gilded bronze mounted with 12 individual porcelain enamel cartouches in the traditional French practice. Hands are finely cut brass. The French movement is of high quality and is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is a replacement. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. Condition of the case is excellent, the original gilding is clean and bright, the silver highlighting has worn and mellowed over the years and gives a pleasing contrast and age to the piece. There are some slight distortions to finials. Dial is excellent with no damage. Retailer's mark on the movement backplate. Complete with pendulum, bell and a suitable key. Full setting up instructions supplied if required. Dimensions of clock: Inches: Height 28 1/2", width 14 1/4", depth 5 1/2" Centimeters: Height 72 cm, width 36.5 cm, depth 14 cm.
