Antique French Gilt Bronze Rococo Clock ~ French - Circa 1900 ~ ~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~ A lovely antique French clock, boldly modelled in the Rococo style in gilded bronze. Waisted keyhole shape profusely decorated with 'C' scrolls, and acanthus. To the top is an elaborate urn with trailing foliage.

The French movement is of high quality and is by the clockmaker A. D. Mougin. The Mougin mark is on the movement backplate and unusually there is a founders mark on the inside of the case. It is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled and tested by our clockmaker. Pendulum is original. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell.

Condition of the case is excellent, beautifully clean and bright with hardly any wear or discolouration and there are no losses. There is an old repair to one of the swags of the urn. The dial is also in excellent condition with no damage.
