Large
Antique French Candelabra ~ French - Circa 1875 ~ ~~ Excellent condition ~~ A Large and impressive antique French Gothic clock set by Japy Freres; beautifully made in gilt brass, very heavy and crisply modelled and with much of the original gilding remaining. The style is typically French gothic, architecturally designed with lions masks, hairy paw feet, flowing foliage and surmounted by a bell. The body of the clock is fretted and modelled as a niche embedded in the overgrown foliage. The pendulum can be glimpsed swinging through the fretwork. The matching candelabra are 6 light and the bases are modelled to compliment the design of the clock. Dial is enamel on copper with a cast brass centre and is complete with the original blued steel hands. Antique French movement is by the famous clockmaker Japy Freres, runs for 8 days and strikes half-hourly on a bell. It has been fully restored in our workshop and is on excellent clean and running condition. The pendulum is a new replacement. Click the movie below to see and hear the movement working! Condition of the case is
excellent, gilding is bright with a clean finish, there is some very minor wear
and discolouration in places. The candelabra arms are slightly distorted. The dial is also in excellent condition
with just some slight nibbles around the winding holes and there is a very light
scratch on the original glass.
