"Clock Cartel Miniature Louis XV Gilt Bronze Cowtail XIXth"
Small clock in the shape of a Louis XV miniature cartel in finely chased gilt bronze decorated with stylized shells and foliage, external pendulum system known as "cow-tail" *, on the back a crowned coat of arms and brand "Bte (Patented) du Roi ", from the XIXth century. This clock is in good condition and is of exceptional quality. The movement works but will have to be revised. We have the keys. * The absence of space available inside the movement implied on some clocks the installation of the pendulum outside the box whose wall had to be pierced. This pendulum then takes the pictorial name of "cow tail". A note: small chips on the dial in the center (see last photo), slightly twisted pendulum, wear of time, see photos. Diameter: dial 2.6 cm Height: 9 cm Width: 7.5 cm Depth: 3.7 cm Reference: A10 154 All photos are on: www.antiques-delaval.com
