Japy  Frères Early Ormolu and Sèvres Porcelain Clock Set

~ French  - Circa 1850 ~

~~ Excellent condition, fully overhauled ~~

A fine and early clock set by the famous maker Japy Freres.  It is of superb quality in fine gilded bronze mounted with delicately painted  Sèrves style porcelain. It features a putto painting a  panel of finely painted flowers. The porcelain panels have a bleu Celeste  ground. The large panel has a lovely painting of two cherubs within a gilt  cartouche. The candelabra are carried by seated cherubs holding floral wreaths. 

The dial is  porcelain enamel on copper with blued lettered hours and original finely fretted  gilt brass hands. The hobnail bezel is fitted with convex glass.

The French movement is by Japy Freres and is of high quality and is in excellent clean and running condition having  been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. It is an early version of the Pendule de Paris movement with spring hammer stop and has been converted  from silk suspension to spring at some time. Pendulum is a replacement. It runs for 8  days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. Click the video clip to hear  the bell and watch the clock running!

Condition of the case is  excellent, the original gilding is beautifully clean and bright with hardly any  wear or discolouration and there are no losses. Porcelain is also in excellent  condition with no damage. The dial is also in excellent  condition just a small nibble next to the right hand winding hole. The set makes a stunning  display as you can see below.

About us   - All of our clocks are original antiques, we source most of our clocks in  France, Belgium, the Netherlands and the UK. We prefer to buy our clocks in  original 'dirty' condition. We then clean the cases using a technique we have  developed over many years. We employ two qualified clockmakers who overhaul  the movements. Movements are thoroughly tested until we are satisfied that they  will run trouble free.
