Fine and Early Bronze and Sienna Marble ~ Horses, Mare with Foal. ~ French - Circa 1820 ~ ~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~ A beautiful, original and early clock depicting a mare tending her foal. Beautifully and delicately modelled in bronze, full of life and movement with a lovely antique patina. The clock is mounted in a Sienna marble plinth mounted with crisp bronze with detail of cornucopia, acanthus and scrolls.

The dial is silvered bronze with a gilt bronze surround and is complete with original fine blued steel hands. The original rear bezel is also glazed and has a silvered sight ring. The serial number 150 is marked on the front and rear bezel as well as the movement.

The French movement is of high quality and is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. It is an early movement design with silk suspension and hammer stop spring. Pendulum is a replacement. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. A video clip is available on request.

Bronze has a very good antique patina with some wear on the high spots and some old touching up. Dial has a mark above the left hand winding hole and is in good condition with good silvering and lettering.
