A lot of antique textiles are so robust and wonderfully easy to wash and maintain. The fibres of these exceptional fabrics were grown without any use of chemical, these textiles are organic. No need to use chemicals to wash antique textiles, a good simple natural soap such as the savon de Marseille is fine for every kind of linen. The textiles can be machine washed on warm. The warmer ithey will be washed, the softer and floppier they will turn. Again, no need to use a softener, a dash of white vinegar or a spoon of baking soda are perfect to maintain these wonderful textiles. Dry them on the line if possible, expose them under sun light to brighten the natural white. The textiles I propose show signs of times, marks that are a moving, precious treasure which attests a bygone era. I will always try to describe them as accuratly as possible, giving many details, measurements and pictures to show the reality of the linen. Estimating the age of a fabric is not scientific but rather archeologic, many signs are useful, such as the stitches, the embroideries, the sewing, the colour, the texture, even the smell of the fabrics can help. Sometimes, the auctioneers or the owners give me precious information about the origin of the trousseau, monograms, name of the ancestors. Experience is also crucial to feel and judge the fiber content, the age, the origin or the use of the textile. I will strive to describe the textiles in the most complete way, using my honest judgement, having spent many years manipulating them. Please note my textiles come from a smoke free house. When they are freshly laundered, the textiles have been washed with natural organic soap and sun dried on line. Items are sent carefully wrapped in silk paper. I will send you information just after the parcel has been sent. I politely ask that all items should be paid within 5 days. I’m making every effort to provide you with high quality linens.

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.
