A fine French Sevres porcelain clock, circa 1855. A very fine example of a French Napoleon III ormolu clock. The clock surmounted by a reclining cherub on a demi lune plinth with Sevres porcelain panel. The domed channeled case housing a gilt highlighted hand painted panel with Roman Numerals, half hour marks and floral garlands. The clock drum flanked by two bleau celeste porcelain columns with palm finials and hand painted scenes depicting musical putti. The whole raised on a porcelain insert base. The top portion of the clock can be removed in order to house the winding key safe (please see picture 8 &9). The original mechanism is present without modification featuring a suspension silk thread. The clock features a twin train mechanical movement striking the hours and half on a bell. The original bell, pendulum and winding key are present.

The mechanism is stamped'Japy Freres Medal Of Honour'. Japy Freres were one of the most prolific and important clock makers of the 19th century. For this particular model of mechanism, the company won a gold award for its high standard. 40 cm high x 26 cm wide.

Condition: Overall, the clock is in good working condition. The ormolu is in good condition and retains a very good colour. The porcelain panels are in fine condition. Please note, whilst the clock currently works, during transport, all clocks are moved around a lot, and therefore, they may require setting up upon receiving them as well as the possibility of requiring professional assistance or a service as they can get'stuck'. There is no guarantee that the clock will work smoothly after it has been transported. Please study the pictures and ask any questions that you may have. All of our labels are bought online, and therefore all have tracking to ensure the item arrives to you.
