A Very Impressive 19th Century French Ormolu Bronze Cartel Wall Clock after a model by Jacques Caffieri. A
French gilt-bronze cartel clock
In
the Louis XV style, Circa 1880 Surmounted
by a sunburst, with Cupid in a chariot with doves, the shaped case flanked by
scrolling foliage, centered by a circular bronze dial with enamel numbers ,
the twin-train movement with countwheel strike, above the waisted lower part
with pierced front panel and a group of Cupid and Psyche above an acanthus
finial
At the very top you see the angel having a great expression on his face plus the Doves and right behind this
trio you have what appears to be the rays of the Sun rising up. At the very
bottom you again see an angel draping a garment over a beautiful and sleeping (Pschye). On the sides of this timepiece are leaves coming out and trailing up and down the sides of the Case. Making for one of
the most attractive French clocks I have had in some time.The dial on this clock is also magnificent, it has a Convex Glass covering the dial while the face has embossed flowers all around and each of the Clocks numerals are hand painted porcelain plaques having black enamel on a white ground........................ As a rule with Putti
or Angels or Cherubs they most always have generic faces to them, but not here, in this work
of Sculptured Bronze The faces of the Cherubs show expressions which to me sets
this clock far apart from the many others I have come in contact with and owned. So it is a
given that this beauty is a very high quality Cartel Clock which dates to the 1880s. It is entirely Gilt Bronze. The movement is a high quality French movement. This Timepiece is one
that you will enjoy living with and showing off. The movement the twin-train movement with countwheel strike tells one the time
of day, and needs not to be wound for 7 to 8 days. This is a stunning and visually super attractive Wall clock that will bring you many years of enjoyment, functionality, and bring continued Beauty to your Home. Examine the pictures closely. The clock is in working condition and runs 8 days with a strike on the bell for the hours and half hours. I purchased this just recently out of a Collectors clock collection along with 6 other French Beauties. The clocks are all top shelf and really excellent examples most are French first Empire early 19th Century. Please see my other listings to view the other clocks from this collection, You will be sorry if you don't visit.I have priced these clocks at very low prices and in the case of this Cartel Clock it is priced at 1/2 of what it has already sold for.
