Louis XVI Style Gilt Bronze And White Marble Trim, 19th Century.

Gilt bronze and white marble garniture in the Louis XVI style, 19th century.
It consists of two pedestal bowls and a clock. The former are identical: on four circular feet, a polygonal base on which rests a low fluted column decorated with two rows of pearls in its lower part; above, a tall stemmed bowl decorated with two handles in the form of plant stems. The clock rests on four feet, a semicircular base with a floral frieze, four columns and another semicircular plate; highlighted by two branches with joined flowers, it has a white dial and Arabic numerals, as well as Louis XVI-type hands and is surmounted by a vase. The clock's pendulum, in the shape of a sun, is visible between the columns and the decorative chains. The French style known as Louis XVI is characterized by its classical inspiration and extends approximately from 1760 to 1789. In the 19th century, many artistic movements of the past were recovered, among which the previous one stood out for its inspiration, very close to the neoclassicism of the time. -
