About the Item

This exquisite late 19th-century French Louis XVI-style mantel clock exemplifies the elegance of the period, featuring intricate champlevé enamel work set against a backdrop of sumptuous gilded ormolu. The clock face, adorned with ornate Roman numerals, showcases a stunning gilded dial that reflects the craftsmanship of its maker, made for the retailers Tiffany & Co. The striking mechanism adds a dramatic flair, while cherubic figures delicately poised atop the clock enhance its opulence. The vibrant enamel colours harmonise beautifully with the rich gold tones, creating a striking visual contrast that elevates this timepiece to a work of art, ideal for any elegant setting.
