Directoire Period Clock

The clock we are presenting is from the Directory period, from the end of the 18th century. It is composed of 2-tone white and black marble for the columns and it is surmounted by a young woman in antique gilded bronze and wherever necessary. Chiseled and gilded bronzes have been carefully brought back there. The movement is in good condition, we had it revised, sun balance. On the dial is inscribed RUIERY in Paris, the name of the watchmaker at the time. Good general condition, note however and confirm by the photos on the dial at the top at noon a lack of enamel but this is really seen when the front door is fully open and a small lack of enamel on the winder from right to 4 hours. Very beautiful object. (E)
