This clock dates to around 1860
Measures 38cm high by 17.5cm wide and 10-cm depth.
In excellent antique condition. The highly delicate Boulle marquetry is remarkably well-preserved, with the brass inlay remaining flat and secure against the tortoiseshell, showing none of the lifting, buckling, or severe cracking common to poorly kept pieces. The original ormolu mounts retain their brilliant, deep golden luster with superb sharpness in the chasing. The enamel dial cartouches are flawless, completely free of chips or hairlines. The movement has been fully serviced, running smoothly and striking in perfect synchronization. Complete with its original/correct pendulum and winding key.
