About the Item

This elegant Porticus clock, dating to the 19th century, exemplifies the French Napoleon III style, characterized by rich materials and ornate decorative details. Crafted from darkened wood and adorned with gilded bronze applications, the clock demonstrates fine craftsmanship and attention to stylistic detail. The gilded metal dial features black Roman numerals, enhancing both legibility and aesthetic appeal, and is framed by delicate bronze ornamentation typical of the period. Measuring 50 × 25 × 15 cm, the piece was originally designed as a mantel clock, combining functionality with decorative sophistication. While the mechanism is missing, the clock retains its architectural form and ornamental charm, making it a significant decorative object and a testament to 19th-century French design. This Porticus clock would interest collectors of antique furniture, decorative arts, and French Napoleon III style objects, offering both historical value and visual elegance.
