French Empire Patinated and Gilt Bronze Mantel Clock
10845 A French Empire patinated and gilt bronze mantel clock, lovers under a palm tree on the water’s edge, the 4.75 inch enamel dial with Roman numerals set within the branches of the palm tree, the entwined figures in matte and burnished gilt bronze standing among bulrushes and flowers in patinated bronze, on a rouge griotte marble base with gilt ball feet. The dial marked ‘a Paris’, unsigned but attributed to Claude Galle (1759 – 1815).
