"Portico Clock "return From Egypt" Empire Period"
A 19th-century Empire period "Return from Egypt" portico clock in chased and gilt bronze. The circular dial with black enamel Roman numerals on a white background is signed Lopin Palais Royal. The uprights are decorated with two caryatids in the form of Egyptian busts resting on a black marble base. The pendulum is in the shape of a sun. The wire-driven movement runs but stops and will therefore need servicing. The clock comes with two mounting keys. There is some damage to the enamel around the mounting holes (see photos). Height: 40 cm;
Width at the base: 24.5 cm;
Depth at the base: 9 cm
