French
carriage clock by Brocot
- Details:
This
high quality French striking carriage clock by Achille
Brocot was probably made to special order due to the
richly engraved 1/8” solid
silver panels depicting Japanese scenes.
The movement and case sit on a cast brass base with
4 numbered and pinned feet. The original escapement
can be seen through a glazed panel in the top next
to the repeat button. The back plate as seen through
a beveled glazed door is stamped AB within a star
and numbered 902.
The
case is numbered 902 in various places and the condition
of the ormolu and the glass are excellent. The movement,
which strikes on a gong on the 1/2 hour and hour,
has been cleaned and serviced by Gerald Marsh Antique
Clocks Ltd. and is in good running order.
Circa
1870.
