Stock No.14688
An interesting 19th century Belgian Black Marble and patinated bronze mounted mantel clock. The clock face rests on the back of a large bronze grotesque which holds the brass rimmed black dial with its brass Roman numerals and hands which are fixed to an engraved sunburst plate. This is flanked on either side with classical style relief panels in patinated bronze and the arched top is supported by a pair Atlas styled crouching figures in the manner of Alfred Stevens. The movement strikes on a gong and the whole is raised on a plinth base with brass stepped feet.
French circa 1875.
