Stunning Gilt Cartel Clock

~ Swedish - Vintage ~

~~ Excellent original Condition ~~ 

A very decorative Gilt cartel clock - made in Sweden in the first half of the 20th century. Very good quality - the case is gesso work - plaster and wood, gilded. The high spots have worn to the red undercoat and some minor losses of gilding and plaster only add to the antique appearance. 

The movement is of good quality and is almost identical to Victorian German movements by the HAC company.

The clock has the appearance of a French early 19th century example, and would fit in very well with any 18th/19th century French interior. It is decorated with roses within floral swags and a ribbon. 

The pendulum is visibly through glass below the dial. The movement is of good quality, runs for 8 days and strikes on a bell.

Condition of the clock is excellent and original. The gilding is in good condition, but not over bright. There are some slight losses to the gesso work, minor chips which help to age the clock. The movement is in excellent clean and running condition.  

The movement has the original pendulum and bell.

Super looking clock for your home!

Dimensions of clock: Height 21", Width 12", Depth 5"
