Ormolu and Marble Library Four Glass Regulator Clock
by ~ Samuel Marti 

~ French - Circa 1900 ~

~~ Excellent original condition ~~ 

A most stunning and superb quality library four glass table clock, beautiful variegated specimen marble mounted with ormolu and surmounted with a bronze lion clutching an ormolu ball. The style is Empire, chic and restrained classical portico shaped with columns and a Cavetto cornice. Lion is very well modelled in bronze and has a good patina.

The condition is excellent and original, no chips to the marble and the ormolu is fresh and untarnished

Dial is enamel on copper with an ormolu engine turned centre, the clock is glazed to all four sides with bevelled glass allowing the pendulum and movement to be seen. Pendulum is original, with silver steel oval section rod with an ormolu bob. 

Samuel Marti is of this makers usual very high standard with their mark "Samuel Marti, gold medal 1900" on the movement backplate. It runs for 8 days and is in excellent, clean and running condition.

Condition of the case is excellent - there are no losses, chips or scratches to the marble and the finish of the gilding is bright and clean with just the occasional very light scratch. The enamel dial is also in excellent condition with just a faint hairline at the 6 0'clock position. Glass is also in excellent condition, two very small nibbles to the bottom of the side panels which are not noticeable. The clock displays quite stunningly as you can see below!

Probably the nicest library four glass you will see, restrained and stylish, superb quality, excellent original condition and by a top maker!
