The clock is adorned with ornate bronze embellishments characteristic of the Napoleon III and Louis XVI styles, reflecting the refined tastes of the period. At its heart lies an enamel dial featuring both Roman and Arabic numerals, elegant bronze hands, and two winding apertures, each marking the passage of time with timeless grace. The enamel dial has marks of use.
Meticulously inspected and serviced by a skilled horologist, the clock ensures precise timekeeping.

Adding to its allure, delicate Sevres porcelain plaques adorn each side of the clock, depicting enchanting scenes of the French countryside. These exquisite additions highlight the impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail that define this remarkable timepiece.
