Rare 18th Century Early Georgian Silk Work With Paper Face Original Frame

Posted by admin On November 17, 2024

Stunning rare piece dating to the 1700s, with fluffy silk trees, and paper instead of silk for the face. The silk on the back is amazingly thick and soft, as is slightly visible from the back. Hand done verre eglomise, this has a wonderful folk feel about it. Has been reframed at some point as there is cardboard support. Minor flaws as shown, including some foil peeling on the black. Stunningly rare older work.

Rare Antique French Bronze Automaton Automata Animation Clock Early 1800s -VIDEO

Posted by admin On November 16, 2024

This listing is for a very rare French mantel clock. This clock dates to the early 1800s and features a gorgeous gilt bronze design. The clock is rare because it has automata/automaton features with a moving water fountain. The fountain has its own movement and has a glass rod that spins, giving the illusion of water being spouted. The clock has a gothic design with a cathedral shaped center. The cathedral has gilt bronze knights in armor, brickwork, and spires. The front has has a statue of a young man playing with a monkey. There is a chain that extends between the two. The basin of the fountain is in the shape of a clam shell. The inner part of the clam shell appears to be sterling silver. The clock movement is an early silk thread movement. It has a design allowing the pendulum to swing outside the case. This design was probably created so that the pendulum doesn’t hit the lower automaton movement. The clock measures 8.4 x 4.75 x 14.75 inches. The movements were last serviced in 2018. The lower automaton movement did run when tested (see video). The clock movement might need servicing. The spring is good. But it did not stay running. Please see photos AND VIDEO for details and feel free to message with any questions.
