With its rich golden brass finish, beautifully detailed circular dial and elaborate sculptural silhouette, this impressive timepiece captures the timeless charm of classical French decorative design. Offered in Good vintage condition, this striking clock retains its attractive ornamental character and requires servicing.
 
Standing an impressive 44 cm tall, this decorative mantel clock showcases an elaborate pierced crest, gracefully curved supports and a beautifully detailed base, making it a distinctive statement piece for a mantelpiece, console table, sideboard or traditional interior.
 
Its combination of intricate craftsmanship, classical styling and decorative brasswork makes it particularly appealing to collectors of vintage French clocks and ornamental timepieces.
🌿 Design Details
This elegant Vintage French clock features a richly ornamented brass case, showcasing flowing scrollwork, delicate floral decoration and beautifully sculpted classical motifs throughout.
 
The upper section is crowned with an elaborate openwork crest, incorporating sweeping acanthus-style leaves, decorative branches and an asymmetrical scrolling arrangement that adds height and visual interest.
 
At the centre sits a circular white clock dial, surrounded by a polished brass bezel. The dial features traditional black Roman numerals, an outer minute track and beautifully shaped black hands, creating an attractive contrast against the golden brass case.
 
Two winding apertures are visible on the dial, while the rear photographs reveal a mechanical clock movement with a bell.
 
The lower section is particularly decorative, featuring large sweeping scrolls, finely detailed floral motifs, pierced lattice-style panels and elegantly curved supports.
 
The base incorporates beautifully shaped feet and elaborate openwork detailing, giving the clock a graceful yet substantial appearance.
 
Its warm golden finish highlights the raised ornamentation, while darker tones within the recessed areas provide depth and emphasise the intricacy of the design.
 
The clock displays an attractive balance of decorative elegance and traditional French styling, making it a striking addition to period-inspired interiors.

"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".
