About the Item
A beautiful original antique French portico clock by Vincenti. It is made of white marble mounted with ormolu (finely gilded bronze). The movement is held aloft on two marble pillars with the ormolu sunburst pendulum swinging gently below. A matching pair of candle sticks complete the set.
The dial is prettily painted with floral swags between the numbers on porcelain enamel. It is complete with it's original finely fretted gilt brass hands and convex glass.
The French movement is by Vincenti and is of high quality. It is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is original with ormolu sunburst.
