Antique French Louis XV Gilt Bronze Clock

~ French - Circa 1880 ~

~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~

A beautiful antique French gilt bronze clock by A. D. Mougin.  Modelled in architectural form and covered with scrolling acanthus decoration to represent a romantic ruin. To the top is an urn with pineapple finial and handles formed as torches entwined with foliage. The front of the clock is of pieced foliage to allow a glimpse of the pendulum gently swinging within. 

The dial is porcelain enamel on copper with a gilt bronze center, original blued steel hands and convex glass.

The French movement is of high quality and is by A. D. Mougin. It is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is an old replacement. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. Click the video below to hear the bell and watch the clock running.

Condition of the case is excellent, the original gilding is beautifully clean and bright with hardly any wear or discolouration. The dial is also in very good condition just some nibbles and a light crack near the left hand winding hole.

About us  - All of our clocks are original antiques, we source most of our clocks in  France, Belgium, the Netherlands and the UK. We prefer to buy our clocks in  original 'dirty' condition. We then clean the cases using a technique we have  developed over many years. We employ two qualified clockmakers who overhaul  the movements. Movements are thoroughly tested until we are satisfied that they  will run trouble free. 

Duty and Taxes - Most countries do not charge import duty on antiques. Some countries charge sales tax. For USA this will be collected by ebay. For UK VAT is included in the price and we pay that for you. For Australia there is sales tax, it will be collected by the courier. All other countries please check your customs website for details. Sadly we have no control over your countries tax regime!

International Shipping is no problem - fully insured

  We use a premium courier such as UPS, DHL etc or a dedicated/specialist  antiques courier.
