A VERY FINE FRENCH EMPIRE STYLE ORMOLU BRONZE AND MARBLE GARNITURE SET, MID 19TH CENTURY
$125,000.00
This Empire-style clock garniture set exudes opulence and classical grandeur. The pair of candelabras, boasting five branches adorned with a winged caryatid supported by a majestic displayed eagle cresting, embody a sense of regality and fine craftsmanship.
The clock's case is equally impressive, featuring two displayed eagle crestings atop a platform upheld by winged caryatids supporting Corinthian capitals. Resting on a rectangular stepped plinth, this magnificent clock is flanked by ormolu eagle finials, adding to its majestic appearance.
The clock's white enamel Roman numeral chapter ring, engine-turned gilt center, and elegant black steel moon hands contribute to its sophisticated design. The movement, with its rectangular plates, underscores the high-quality craftsmanship characteristic of this era.
