Gorgeous 19th century antique wall clock. This is a lovely highly decorative Louis XV style French giltwood and gesso on carved wood circa 1880-90s possibly earlier. The clock is extremely beautiful with large carved roses and flowing ribbon, truly lovely! The face is gold (minor scuffs as can be seen in the images) and has ornate handles and glass is beautifully curved. The clock chimes on the half hour and hour, I might add it’s a totally enchanting chime, from another era to be sure. This fine ornate clock measures about 21 inches by 13 inches, a little of the gesso is missing, however in a pleasing manner, not distracting. The clock is in working order and would be fabulous to own. Perfect for the popular Shabby Chic, Romantic Cottage, Paris Apartment décor. A timeless beauty.
