Presenting an exquisite mid-19th-century carriage clock by Auguste of Paris. Housed in a delicately foliate-engraved case with charming acorn finials and a matching carrying handle, this clock exudes elegance and sophistication.
The clock features a pristine white enamel dial boasting the maker's name, Roman numerals, a minute track, and fine matching steel moon hands. The intricate craftsmanship extends to the rear door, which is elegantly engraved and reveals a twin train going barrel movement. This mechanism strikes the hours and half-hours on a bell, accompanied by the original jewelled lever platform escapement and repeat function.
Stamped with the signature Auguste-Paris on the back plate, this piece is a testament to the renowned craftsmanship and attention to detail associated with the Auguste of Paris brand.
