Description:
A magnificent Antique French bronze and marble mantel clock, beautifully decorated with a graceful shepherdess figure accompanied by two sheep in a charming countryside scene. The richly sculpted bronze decoration, elegant dark patina and contrasting green marble base create a sophisticated classical appearance. Offered in Good antique condition, with the clock requiring servicing.
 
The beautifully modelled female figure stands beside the ornate clock case, wearing a flowing dress and holding a tall decorative staff, with a basket of flowers resting at her side. The circular white dial features elegant black Arabic numerals, delicate floral decoration and an attractive golden surround. Supported by a beautifully veined green marble plinth with elaborate gold-coloured feet, this impressive clock makes a distinctive statement piece for a mantelpiece, sideboard or period-style interior.

"The sideboard is stunning, thank you. Looks perfect in my flat. As if it was meant to be there".

"I don’t like to match furniture and love mish mash, quirky and odd looking things lol. I absolutely love them. My house is 203 years old and is grade II listed. I think it makes an old cottage come alive and puts a modern twist on it. I love furniture that tells a story or gets people talking at a house party".
