About the Item
An exquisite 18th Century Louis XVI mantel clock crafted in ormolu and marble, adorned with intricate detailing. Housed within a meticulously carved marble case, the clock features a charming lady figure and cherub embellishments on each side, enhancing its ornate appeal. Its white enamel dial, measuring 5¼ inches and signed by Ridel A Paris, displays hour and minute markers alongside a concentric date hand. The clock operates via three keyholes for winding and boasts a bell striking movement with a star-cut count wheel and silk suspension. Characterized by its open-backed design, the clock bears the distinguished signature "Ridel A PARIS." The rocaille case is gracefully flanked by the figures of Venus and Cupid, while a plaque portraying putti musicians adorns the bowfront base, adding to its allure.
