Object description :

" Cartel Clock Tortoise Shell Marquetery And Gilt Bronze"

Luminous cartel in the Louis XV style and Napoleon III period.
Architecture of animated form covered on three sides with a magnificent red veneer nuanced with black in tortoiseshell and an inlay of a rich and fine marquetry in Boulle technique, made of gilded brass with foliage motifs. Elegant quality ornamentation, fitting each corner in gilded bronze and chiseled with foliage motifs serving as a beautiful frame. “Cartridge” style enamel dial, protected by a bezel set with a domed glass.

Original movement without modification, hour and half-hour strike on old bell.

The marquetry has benefited from a buffer varnish providing contrast, shine and protection.
