This antique 19th-century French mantle clock features a handcrafted wooden case decorated with marquetry and parquetry techniques, including circular wood inlays and geometric diagonal veneer paneling. The face presents a classic white enamel dial with Roman numerals enclosed in a turned brass bezel ring.

The movement is equipped with a jeweled Swiss/French lever platform escapement stamped with speed-regulation indicators (S / F for Slow/Fast and R / A for Retard/Avance), typical of fine late-19th-century horology. The clock mechanism is in working order, though the original winding key is omitted.

Dimensions: 25cm (h) x 25.5cm (l) x 12cm (w)

Condition: Working movement; missing wind-up key; minor antique wear and natural hairline splits consistent with age to the wood case.
