French Marquetry Antique 1850's Wall Clock

$695.00

This beautiful 1850's French marquetry and black lacquer clock has a reverse hand-painted glass dial. The black frame is hinged at the top to lift for winding. Underneath is intricate hand-made marquetry in mahogany, walnut, ebony and fruitwood. There are shrinkage separations and irregularity due to age on the frame and also in the marquetry, see photos.

Wall clocks of this design are characteristic of mid 1800's France. The brass 8 day movement has been professionally cleaned and oiled, and keeps excellent time with a strike on the hour and half. This charming antique clock retains its original brass pendulum, and size is 23" high, 20" wide and 5" deep.
