Description :
chiseled bronze, gilt and brown patina.
This very beautiful set comes from the workshops of Raingo et frères.
The four son brothers of the founder Zacharie stood out for the excellence of their creations at the universal exhibitions of the middle of the 19th century.
These creations can be found in several museums around the world.
The particularity of this clock using Renaissance and Antique architectural decorative vocabulary is the finesse of its bas-relief decoration enhanced by the brown patina, very much in the spirit of Valadier.
The clock is in the shape of an attic (Louvre) with a broken pediment.
The candelabras have a pilaster shaft (Blois), an Ionic capital, a base with sides decorated with grotesques (Urfé), the four tiered sconces support the binet in a girandole on a sphere.
We are in the finest quality of drawing and carving.
State :
practically perfect, very beautiful gilding barely worn on the lower part (the vengeful wipe of the maid, as an old antique dealer said).
Newly revised clock mechanism.
