Enamel Mounted Objects

A unique and incredible model of a Roman Galley Ship, by Manfred Wild. This is truly an awe inspiring one of a kind piece made by "The Modern Day Faberge" Manfred Wild. The ships haul is made from a single clear hand carved piece of rock crystal. The top of the rock crystal haul is hand-engraved and further etched to appear as if it is made up of individual wooden planks. The ship also consists of two hand carved frosted rock crystal sails, each delicately floating in mid-air and held up by 18-karat gold chains and bars. The ships body is made up of pieces of solid two-tone matte and burnished 18-karat yellow gold, all hand-chased and further chiseled with exceptional detail and the highest quality of craftsmanship. Around either end of the ship are twenty-eight green enamel shields, each with a particular engraved design, and fitted with interchanging bezel-set round sapphire and diamond cabochons. There are two banks of twenty-six Romanesque oars on either side of the galley constructed of solid 18-karat yellow gold. To complete the rowing capacity of the galley, two complimentary solid 18-karat yellow gold and patinated gold rudders can be found on the stern, starboard and port sides. On the stern or back side of the boat is a rounded semi-circular fine-silver dome, decorated in brown enamel with a teardrop shaped emerald finial. A gold winged end is also affixed to the stern with a gold Romanesque finial further enhanced with a gold-beveled circular emerald. Attached to the beveled-emerald are four gold spurs, each with gold-beveled sapphires. Located throughout the galley are over 650 brilliant- cut diamonds, which have been meticulously set in the gold body. The top sail rests on a patinated rod with gold chain-links which attach the sail to the brown enameled stern. An anchor completes the gorgeous Roman galley and demonstrates the care and exceptionally quality of this piece. The entire galley is mounted on a gorgeous black quartzite base set in 18-karat gold.

Large and exceptional, mid 19th century, god of wine theme clock by Vincenti & Cie, Paris. Throughout the 19th century, French artisans have made some of the most amazing quality and meaningful antiques using the most expensive materials and techniques available. This top quality made and sizable mantle clock has all of that and then some. So if you are looking for an impressive, stylish, meaningful and sizable antique clock to grace your mantel piece or side table then this mid 1800s French work of art could be perfect for you. The design and the quality of the gilt bronze floral ornaments on the marble base are truly amazing and with the daylight shining onto the guilding this clock becomes an even more impressive work of art. However, what makes this antique clock really stand out is the exceptional bronze sculpture of the infant Bacchus. This young god of wine sculpture has some of the best details and the most beautiful patina we have ever seen. The top quality of this bronze sculpture combined with the famous clock maker's name of Vicenti & Cie (of Paris, France) on the clock mechanism leads us to believe that this unique bronze Bacchus was hand-crafted by sculptor Claude Michel Clodion. If you are a wine enthousiast, a wine collector, a wine seller or maybe even the owner of a vineyard then you could not wish for a more interesting and meaningful antique mantel clock. This sculpture depicts Bacchus (or Dionysos as he is known in Greece) as a very young child in a 'crown of vine leaves'. With his right arm he is emptying his grapes filled rush basket...
