The dial is elegantly designed with Roman numerals on enamel cartouches, surrounded by delicate filigree work. The finely sculpted figure of a cherub crowns the piece, adding a playful yet sophisticated touch.
Resting on an elaborately decorated matching bracket, the clock exemplifies the harmonious blend of artistry and functionality typical of Louis XV design. Its original mechanism has been preserved, a testament to the superior craftsmanship of the period.
This timepiece is not just a functional object but a stunning decorative piece that embodies the grandeur of 18th-century French decorative arts.
Details of the movement mechanism: Eight days ago a hanging pendulum. It struck half past one on the bell. The clock works very well and early. And it was recently cleaned and serviced by a professional watchmaker. The clock comes complete with key and bell.
