About the Item
A very rare terracotta Uriela statue, stamped as made in Cologne, has a hand-carved title "FiLLE DE Capri" on the front. "Fille De Capri" translates to Capri Girl. The woman is carrying a basket on her head and one in her arm. The statue is numbered 2562 P. According to the Dawson City museum, these statues were sold in the Egyptian pavilion, aptly named A Street in Cairo, at the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago. The World's Fair, also named the Colombian Exposition, was the biggest of its time. Orientalist and Africanist sculptures were very popular with the bourgeoisie during the Napoleon III period at the end of the 19th century. In the style of Austrian "Goldscheider" terracotta sculptures. DIMENSIONS: 36.5" high, 14.5" wide, 12" ORIGIN: Cologne, Germany CIRCA: late 19th Century.
Two other Uriela statues have been noted to reside in museums. One is in the Smithsonian, and the other is in a museum in Dawson City, Yukon, Canada. According to the Dawson City museum, similar statues reside in Montana, Texas, and Wisconsin.

19th Century French Empire Clock Garniture, Japy Frères et Cie Movement
By L.P. Japy
Cie
Located in North Palm Beach, FL
This magnificent three-piece mantel clock garniture exemplifies the height of French Empire Revival design in the 19th century—where classical grandeur, refined materials, and superb craftsmanship converge to create a work of both artistry and precision.
The Clock (Centerpiece)
The clock stands as a figural masterpiece rooted in the Empire aesthetic. Its rectilinear case is crafted from deeply polished black Belgian marble (or slate), the dark surface setting a dramatic stage for the richly gilded bronze ornamentation.
Above, a patinated bronze figure of a seated muse—likely Clio, the Muse of History, or Urania, the Muse of Astronomy—rests elegantly beside a lyre, symbolizing art, knowledge, and harmony.
The frieze features remarkable ormolu embellishments, including medallions depicting the Arethusa head type, inspired by ancient Greek coinage from Syracuse, Sicily (circa 400 BC). The base is finished with bold scrolled tiger feet...
