A French Charles X style mantle clock, and a ditto pair of period candlesticks, H 28,5 - 34 cm
A French Charles X style gilt bronze mantle clock, decorated with an allegory on science on top, H 34 - W 30 cm
Added a pair of gilt brass French Restauration period candlesticks, H 28,3 cm
Condition: - Given the lower quality of the details of the bronze, there is a possibility that the item is a later copy.
- the wind-up key included
- some wear to the gilt
- scratches to the enamelled dial
- restored spot to the top of the enamelled dial
- the functioning of the item wasn't checked but in an assay to wind the mechanism there was a slight resistance which in our opinion means that the spiral springs are in good condition.
- one of the candle sockets is pressed into the candlestick that it, as a result, stands slightly askew
