Item Details
Description
Rare Louis XV Bronze Dore et Patine Clock with Ferdinand Berthoud Works, fourth quarter 18th century, on a base with molded guilloche and corner medallions, the clock decorated with symbols of knowledge and education, a bronze putto sitting atop a stack of books, holding a scroll and a pen, leaning against the clock, and a celestial globe with a sundial and calipers to one side, the clock signed on the enamel dial and the interior plate, h. 12-1/4", w. 11-3/4", d. 5".
Condition
Retaining its pendulum and winding key. This clock has been converted from a silk string suspension to a suspension spring. The case retains much but not all of its original gilding. There is scattered patination among the original gilt. The pierced ring at the north pole position in the globe is slightly bent. The globe has a dent. NOTE: We are uncertain as to its running condition.
