Japy Freres Antique French Classical Clock.

~ French - Circa 1870 ~

~~ Excellent condition ~~

A beautiful antique gilt brass clock by the famous maker Japy Freres. It is very well modelled as a classical ruin, covered in foliage and floral swags. Below the dial is a bow and a quiver of arrows. The top of the clock is surmounted by an urn and a bowl of exotic fruit. The front of the clock is very delicately fretted to lighten the design and which allows the pendulum to be seen swinging.   

The dial is enamel on copper and is finely painted with floral swags. It is complete with the original blued steel hands.

Japy Freres movement is of superb quality, runs for 8 days and strikes half-hourly on a bell. It has been fully restored in our workshop and is in excellent clean and running condition. The pendulum is an old replacement. Click the movie below to see and hear the movement working!

Condition of the case is excellent with a bright and clean finish, some very minor wear or discolouration. Dial is also in excellent condition.

Complete with pendulum, bell and a suitable key. Full setting up instructions supplied if required.
