Gilt Bronze And Marble Mantel Clock With Officer Figure. France, Empire Period.

Refined gilt bronze mantel clock, set on an elegant white marble base.
The uniqueness of this piece lies in the sculptural scene depicting a French officer in uniform, accompanied by his loyal hunting dog — an unusual and charming subject.

The decoration is enhanced by finely crafted panoplies on the front and sides.
The enamel dial is signed "Lapierre à Paris", adding further prestige to the clock.

Very good overall condition: a minor flaw on the enamel dial and the absence of the rear cover should be noted. Movement requires servicing.

France, early 19th century.
