French Empire style table clock. All of it is made in gilded bronze, with a sculptural concept typical of this time.
The bronze table clocks of the 19th century were key pieces in decoration and interior design, as well as symbols of social status and refinement. Elaborately crafted and often adorned with artistic motifs, these clocks not only served to measure time, but also reflected the technical advances and taste for fine craftsmanship of the time. Bronze, a durable and aesthetically appreciated material, allowed the creation of complex and elegant forms, integrating styles such as neoclassical or rococo, which made them highly valued objects in the residences of high society.

It presents faults in the gilding, does not preserve pendulum or key and the back cover is missing. Needs restoration.
