Large Regency Period Cartel Clock In Rosewood Marquetry And Beautiful Gilt Bronzes

Very beautiful cartel and its base from the Regency period.
Rosewood marquetry on the cartel and its console highlighted by a very beautiful ornamentation of chiseled and gilded bronzes.
The stylistic elements of the Regency are well represented: clawed dragons enclosing foliated falls, espagnolettes surmounting the 4 scrolled feet of the cartel, deep shells centered on the 2 elements of the cartel.
A very pronounced decoration of a winged putto holding a lyre and carrying a quiver underlines the base, while a child in a turban balanced on a sphere, crowns the top.

The plate engraved in its center with trunks bitten by 2 dragons and a quiver, takes up the distinctive elements of this cartel.
A first circle is formed by the hours on individual enameled cartouches.
A 2nd circle on the periphery is engraved with the minutes.
The name of the clockmaker "DECOVIGNI A PARIS" is inscribed on a separate cartouche suspended above the dial.
The cartel features a wire movement.
The plate is engraved on its rear face with the same name of the watchmaker.

The cartel is in working order.
