Description
Discover the charm of this high-quality gilded carriage clock, a perfect blend of craftsmanship and functionality. Its “one-piece” gilded case features smaller, elegant proportions, making it both compact and refined. The design is accentuated by a large glass top aperture, offering a captivating view of the mechanism within.
The clock boasts a pristine enamel dial, paired with “moon” blued steel hands, embodying timeless elegance and sophistication. These classic details enhance its aesthetic appeal, making it a standout piece in any setting.
This exceptional clock is powered by an 8-day duration mechanism, striking the half-hours and hours on a bell with clear and melodious tones. It also features a push button repeating function, allowing the time to be announced on demand. Retaining its original lever escapement, this carriage clock ensures reliability and historical authenticity.
Ideal for collectors and connoisseurs of fine timepieces, this carriage clock combines functionality, style, and historical charm. Its compact size and exceptional quality make it a true testament to horological excellence.
