Item Details

Description

A French gilt brass and patinated steel novelty 'quarterdeck' mantel clock Guilmet, Paris, late 19th century The eight-day gong striking movement with anchor escapement regulated by compound pendulum with upper crossed spring suspension for the figural bob and stamped GLT, BREVETTE, S.G.D.G. trademark over serial number 1313 to backplate, the circular gilt Roman numeral dial with steel spade hands and canted bezel set into the cabin elevation of the case modelled as the stern of a ship with upper poop deck applied with binnacle compass before a figure cast as a sailor at the helm rocking from side-to-side with the motion of the pendulum, with curved balustrading behind terminating with lantern posts to sides over lower deck accessed via a ladder to the left and with another figure of a mariner gathering rope from a coil to the right, on moulded gilt base applied onto black marble plinth with gilt block feet, 29cm (11.5ins) high; with green velvet lined ebonised wood stand, 34cm (13.5ins) high overall. Relatively little is known about Andre Romain Guilmet other than he specialised in producing highly fashionable mystery clocks and industrial timepieces during the last quarter of the 19th century. Another example to this design by Guilmet is illustrated in Roberts, Derek Mystery Novelty and Fantasy Clocks on page 225 (figs. 22-2 a-d).
