FRENCH LOUIS XV STYLE ORMOLU BRONZE MANTEL CLOCK, 19TH CENTURY
-
Description
This clock is crafted with a classical lady draped in a toga, seated amidst broken columns, a design that exudes a sense of classical elegance and artistic allure. Her pose, looking upward while holding an angel harp, likely adds to the overall aesthetic and storytelling of the piece, imbuing it with a sense of grace and harmony.
The gilt bronze material used in crafting the clock suggests a luxurious and opulent feel, which was characteristic of many decorative pieces from that era.
The movement, stamped with "Fabrique D'Horlogerie F. Mara," denotes the clock's origin or maker's mark. The presence of this stamp often indicates a specific clockmaker or workshop known for producing high-quality timepieces.
Overall, this mantel clock represents a fusion of artistic beauty and functional timekeeping, blending ornate design elements with the precision of clockwork to create a visually striking and functional piece of art.
