Description from the seller

Ancient French religious clock in Louis XIV style, with a brass movement signed “Boucher à Paris.” It features an elegant brass dial with enamel cartouches, blue Roman numerals, a frontal decoration with a putto, and a blackened wooden case adorned with gilded fillets.

The mechanism is currently non-operational and requires inspection as well as repair by a specialized clockmaker. The case has a few minor losses, signs of wear, abrasions, and alterations related to its age. This is an antique, delicate and fragile item that must be handled and transported with great care.

The clock is sold with its key and its pendulum.

Dimensions:
Height: 45 cm
Width: 22.5 cm
Depth: 12.5 cm
Sold as is, with no guarantee of functionality.
