Lyre Clock With Cherubs In Patinated And Gilded Bronze And Regule

Lyre clock with cherubs in patinated and gilded bronze and regule

Important lyre-shaped decorative clock, richly ornamented in the Louis XVI and Napoleon III taste.

The circular dial with Roman numerals is set in an elegant openwork structure decorated with foliage, surmounted by two confronting rooster heads and a covered vase at the top.

The whole rests on a moving base profusely decorated with neoclassical friezes and ornaments.

Two winged cherubs in patinated regula frame the dial and hold twisted garlands participating in the overall composition of the decoration.

Very beautiful deep red polychromy contrasting with the silvered gilded and patinated parts.

Mid-twentieth-century decorative work in the taste of Louis XVI clocks.

Key-wound mechanical movement.
