AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Table clock in bronze and porcelain in the French Louis XV style
This table clock represents the revival of the French Rococo style of Louis XV, characterized by elaborate scrollwork, floral motifs and asymmetrical shapes. Probably produced at the beginning of the 20th century, it reflects the taste for decorative opulence typical of the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The combination of finely worked bronze and multicolored porcelain inserts with floral decorations demonstrates the high artisanal craftsmanship of the period.
These clocks are particularly appreciated by collectors of antique clocks and by enthusiasts of French decorative art for their artistic refinement and the quality of workmanship. They represent pieces sought after by connoisseurs of period furnishings and collectors who wish to enrich classic and elegant environments. Their value lies in the combination of functionality and sculptural beauty, making them central pieces with a strong visual impact in European decorative art collections.
One hand is missing and the mechanism needs to be overhauled.
