19th C. Swiss Slate Mantel Clock, Brass / Marble Inlay
Item Details
Description
Western Europe, France / Switzerland, ca. late 19th century CE. A beautiful slate mantel piece clock with a pendulum swing, inlaid with a brass dial face in Roman numerals under a flat glass face that opens on a hinge. The black slate is highly polished and is beautifully carved and put together to resemble a classical temple. Red and white stone discs ae inlaid into the front face and etched with simple cornucopia and foliate motifs. Antique mantel clocks such as this use mechanical movements, and the verso opens to reveal the mechanisms. This clock was functioning until recently and likely just needs to be professionally serviced, and include the 2 keys. Please note that the thick stone construction adds substantially to the weight of this piece, a sturdy clock that is perfect, stately decor! Size: 13.5" L x 6.3" W x 13.6" H (34.3 cm x 16 cm x 34.5 cm)

This item is heavy/oversized and will require 3rd party shipping. Please inquire about shipping cost prior to bidding.
