Posted by admin On November 15, 2023
An exquisite antique brass Haberdashery mirror dating to around 1920 and in superb original condition, it measures approx 17″ tall or 24″ fully extended, the base is 5″ wide will the mirror frame is 7″ wide. Extremely rare being a mirror to one side and the reverse being a magnifying lens that doubles the size of objects placed in front of it. Super quality and in perfect working order, a real gem in every respect. This would have been on a counter top in an extremely high end shop and exudes the style and sophistication of the period. Please remember this is around one hundred years old now and while condition is excellent it does have some tiny marks and scratches etc as you’d expect at this age- see pictures.

Antique French Empire Mantel Clock, circa 1800. A very fine and rare example of a French Empire fire gilded ormolu / mercury clock depicting a young lady draped in a flowing dress illustrating the allegory of beauty featuring fine detail. The figure stands elegantly with flowing hair looking into a mirror alongside a jug and bowl and jewellery box on the clocks drum case. The figure of the lady has been finely chiselled; she has very realistic features; pay particular attention to the face, hands and finger nails. The clock demonstrates the finest quality of craftsmanship. To the front elevation, the clock features a silvered dial with Roman numerals. The front elevation of the base features repoussé work with shells and scroll work. A book, scroll and harp surmount the clocks drum case alongside a laurel wreath representing victory. The mechanism features a suspension silk thread. The clock features a twin train mechanical movement striking the hours and half on a bell. The clock is regulated by a count wheel. The mechanism is stamped by one of the most important and prolific 19th century clock makers, Japy Freres. The bell, pendulum and winding key are present. 37 cm high x 27 cm wide x 8.5 cm deep. Condition: Overall, the clock is in good working condition. The ormolu is in good condition and retains a very good colour. Please note, whilst the clock currently works, during transport, all clocks are moved around a lot, and therefore, they may require setting up upon receiving them as well as the possibility of requiring professional assistance or a service as they can get’stuck’. There is no guarantee that the clock will work smoothly after it has been transported. Please study the pictures and ask any questions that you may have.
