Very elegant white marble clock topped by its patinated bronze signed Théodore Gechter* (1795 - 1844) displaying a horse in full regalia and its groom holding its hind leg.
The clock, which has been completely overhauled and is in perfect working order, displays Roman numerals in enamel on earthenware against a background of gilded bronze decoration. The mechanism has a wire suspension and is numbered 106 with its winding key.
Its white marble is cut and molded on its beveled corners, and bordered by a large gilded bronze frieze decorated with leaves and flowers.
Period: Early 19th century
