Antique French Gilt Brass Clock by
A. D. Mougin

~ French - Circa 1880 ~

~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~

A beautiful original antique French clock well modelled in gilt brass. The movement is by the famous maker A. D. Mougin. It is of waisted keyhole shape, with fret work to the front and mythical creatures forming the bracket feet. A large urn finial with flowing foliage sits on top. The clock is only 5" in depth so would sit nicely on a mantle shelf. It has been restored to the highest standard in our own workshop. 

The dial is white enamel on copper with blued steel hands and a pretty gilded bezel.

The French movement is of high quality and has the A. D. Mougin mark on the backplate along with that of the retailer. It is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is original. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. Click the video clip below to hear the bell and watch the clock running!

Condition of the case is excellent, the original gilding is beautifully clean and bright with hardly any wear or discolouration and there are no losses. The dial is also in excellent condition just some tiny nibbles next to the winding holes. It displays very well as you can see below.
