Catalog Description:

C.1885, French, Vincenti, Boulle Style clock in very good original condition. This clock was made in the style of circa 1685, and several similar examples may be found in La Pendule Francaise (Tardy) in the Louis XIV chapter. The tortoise shell veneer is in good condition (minor nicks here and there) and all of the brass trim and finials are present. The well made movement is by Vincenti, Paris, and with serial number 9239 and matching number on pendulum (also with importers stamp-A.1). Strikes on a coiled flat wire gong, mounted on a standard to the bottom of the case. The dial plate is cast brass with a scroll center pattern and 12 individual cartouche with Roman numerals. Front door with key lock intact, although a bit sticky. Ticks and strikes. If this were a period clock, it would be extremely expensive. Height 22 inches
