Description
Imposing Louis-Philippe Gilt-Bronze and Ebonized Wood Portico Clock, second quarter 19th century, of unusually large scale, with a carefully cast bronze base molding, Ionic capitals, bezel and dentillated cornice, retaining a bright gilt surface, the unusual ebonized face with a gilt-bronze chapter ring and what appears to be a miniature hand, h. 29-3/4", w. 13-1/2", d. 7-3/4".
Condition
The gilt-bronze fittings retain nearly all the original surface. There are a few minor scattered chips to base, and smaller losses to upper edge of the top. The leveler under the pendulum is missing its insert. The ebony veneer on the dial is showing age cracks, but remains intact. The minute hand is missing its chapter ring. There is a winding key present.
