Presenting a magnificent French Louis XVI style chimney clock, crafted between 1860 and 1880 from exceptionally heavy and high-quality bronze. … more Presenting a magnificent French Louis XVI style chimney clock, crafted between 1860 and 1880 from exceptionally heavy and high-quality bronze. This exquisite timepiece is a testament to the opulent and intricate design elements characteristic of the Louis XVI period.

The clock features a delightful scene with three putti. The central putto, perched atop a grapevine-laden pedestal, triumphantly holds a wine chalice aloft. This pedestal is lavishly adorned with detailed grape clusters, grapevines, and elegantly shaped garlands. Flanking the pedestal are two additional putti, each busy gathering grapes to present to their elevated companion.

Encased between the two lower putti is the clock's housing, which contains an 8-day spring movement with a finely crafted enamel dial. The dial is marked by Roman numerals and complemented by beautifully decorated bronze hands. The movement strikes on the hour and half-hour, and the clock is complete with its original winding key, pendulum, and bell.

Above the clock case, two birds engage in a playful struggle over the grapes, adding a dynamic touch to the scene. Additional grapevine decorations adorn the clock case, which is supported by four lion’s paw feet, ensuring both stability and grandeur.
