An elegant, Neoclassical style French mantel clock boasting a vibrant, deep blue lapis lazuli veneered body. The architectural case is mounted with fine, highly detailed gilt-bronze (ormolu) fittings, featuring scrolled floral garlands draped along the sides, classical floral rosettes on the corners, and torch-and-wreath motifs flanking the face.

Surmounting the arched top of the case is a finely cast, majestic gilt-bronze eagle with fully outstretched wings. The white enamel dial is delicately hand-painted with a perimeter of pink floral swags, displaying Arabic numerals with ornate, openwork gilded hands. The reverse reveals a brass spring-driven movement, complete with a chiming bell and a backplate stamped with the serial number 4391.
