Early 19th Century Empire Mantel Clock “L’Amour et L’Amitiè”

$0.00

For inquiries about this item, please scroll to the bottom the page: “enquire about this item”.

A very fine gilt bronze Empire mantel clock, known as "Love and Friendship," from the early 19th century, Paris, circa 1810. This exquisite timepiece features a romantic theme, highlighting a young woman in classical dress seated atop the dial drum. She holds a portrait medallion of her lover in her left hand while looking down at a carrier pigeon perched on her knee, likely awaiting a love letter she has just written.

The white enamel dial showcases both Roman and Arabic numerals with gilt bronze hands. The clock's movement includes a silk thread suspension and anchor escapement, striking each half and whole hour on the original bell.

The scene is further enhanced by the intricate details surrounding the clock:

  • The young woman rests her feet on an ancient Roman style Cleopatra chair with cushion and fringes, positioned to the left of the dial.

  • To the right stands a small writing table adorned with three winged lions at each corner as feet. Each lion has the body of a woman and the face and feet of a lion. On the table are her feather pen, empty writing paper, and stamp.

  • Below the dial is her lover, likely a shepherd, lying in the grass with his sheep, waiting patiently to receive the letter from the pigeon. Beautiful floral shapes surround the base of the clock.

The entire clock rests on four round legs and stands very sturdy.

Details:

  • Movement: Eight-day going movement with a wire suspension pendulum, striking the hour and half-hour on a bell.

  • Condition: Excellent, perfect working condition. Recently cleaned and serviced by a professional clockmaker. Comes complete with its pendulum, key, and bell.

  • Measurements: Height 50.5 cm (20 inches), Width 41 cm (16 inches), Depth 16.5 cm (6.5 inches).

  • Origin: Paris, circa 1810.

References:

  • Encyclopédie de la pendule française, Pierre Kjellberg, p.397 #D.

  • French Bronze Clocks, Elke Niehüser, front cover, p.120, p.220 #491.

This remarkable Empire mantel clock, embodying the themes of love and friendship, is a splendid addition to any collection, reflecting the artistry and craftsmanship of early 19th century Parisian clockmakers.
